If you have noticed white bumps on your manhood, don't wait before getting it treated. The appearance of white bumps on the male organ can be a distressing and painful condition for many men, and it can interfere with urination, pleasure and physical activity. Getting an accurate diagnosis is important, as white bumps are a symptom of STI's, inflammatory diseases and block hair follicles and sweat glands. Vitamins, minerals and crèmes for men's health can support normal tissue healing and reduce inflammation, as well as support immune health. Papules: Papules are small white spots which may contain a white fluid, similar to pimples. Only rarely are papules caused by a disease or pathogen, but they can result in some serious complications, especially in men who are immune-compromised. Possible causes of papules include blocked hair follicles or sweat glands, eczema, pearly papules (this appears like small warts but is non-infectious) and Fordyce spots. Infectious causes of papules include genital warts and molluscum contagiosum - both contagious STI's that can be difficult to treat. If you are suffering from any form of papules, seek medical attention for a proper diagnosis. Ulcers: Ulcers are more serious than papules, and are often caused by infectious disease. When they are small, ulcers may appear similar to papules, but eventually grow larger and fill with clear, white or red fluid. The tissues within and around the ulcer may eventually turn black with necrosis, causing serious complications. Causes of male organ ulcers can include STI's like syphilis, chancroid and herpes, cancerous lesions from squamous cell carcinoma, and chronic inflammatory conditions such as Behçet's disease and Reiter's syndrome. Sometimes ulcers can be the result of a physical trauma or blow to the male organ. Proper diagnosis is essential, as all cases of male organ ulcers require urgent medical attention. Plaques: Plaques present as thickening, scaly skin conditions which may begin as smaller white bumps on the male organ. While some cases of plaques can have an infectious or disease-related cause, often they are due to chronic inflammatory conditions such as acute dermatitis, eczema and psoriasis. During these conditions the skin may appear dry, flaky, itchy and present with small white bumps. Balanitis and posthitis are highly painful inflammatory skin conditions of the male organ and foreskin, which may be the result of a candida infection. Sclerosis is another inflammatory condition which can cause irritation and thickening of the foreskin, to the point of causing phimosis. Medications Internal treatments: What sort of medications you can take for white bumps on the male organ varies greatly, as it depends on your diagnosis? Papules and ulcers are likely to be treated by antibiotic therapy, in order to rid the body of infectious pathogens. Eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis are difficult to treat with internal medicine, but undergoing detoxification and trying the Elimination Diet under medical supervision can be very helpful to some people. Topical treatments Treating white bumps on the male organ often will involve both internal and external therapies. Upon diagnosis doctors and genitourinary specialists can prescribe a range of different topical treatments, including antibiotics, hydrocortisone creme, and antiviral crèmes. Natural creme include botanical extracts, vitamins and minerals may also help to support tissue healing and reduce inflammation. Using a men's health formula (most health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) provides vitamin C for tissue healing, vitamin E to reduce scarring, vitamin A to control inflammation, vitamin D for healthy skin regeneration and shea butter for tissue moisturization.
