Small single spot of a pinkish color on the acorn. Circumcised. No pain, no itching, same partner for 5 years.

I am wondering if I should consult. No pain or itching, only one small spot for 8 days. It seems to be fading but I'm not sure.

Hello Sir,
It is of course difficult to comment with so little information about your history. However, you should know that in the absence of more alarming symptoms (fever, growing spot, spots elsewhere on the body, muscle or joint pain), it is possible to wait a few more days, taking care to clean the glans without rubbing too much or using strong soap. If in two days the stain is still present but somewhat diminished, you could try Canesten cream, which you can find in pharmacies. This cream could cure balanitis if it is caused by a fungal infection, which is possible despite the fact that you have been in a stable relationship for several years.
Hopefully it will be useful,
Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
