    If you got it recently all of a sudden, then it shouldn't be anything serious. You should see a urologist at your earliest to get it diagnosed and treated. Don't wait for opinions here.

    There are some conditions like BXO in which hard scar tissues develop on the penis glans and inside the urethra, but in your case it doesn't seem to be BXO, as you have said that it feels soft to touch.

    Go to the urologist right away.

    Hi you have only had the discoloration for two weeks? I think you should have it checked with your doctor it maybe just a fungal infection but it does have some of the symptoms of lichen sclerosus what ever it is will still need treatment so it would be best to have it checked!

      thanks will book to see my doctor i feel i have excess foreskin which is pretty tight when erect and maybe thinking there is a link between these

      That's the best thing to do see you doctor they may refer you on. A tight foreskin (phimosis) does go hand in hand with LS there's no pale colour to your foreskin?

      Do let us know how you get on with your doctor.
