Could inflammed, red, swollen fordyce spots on penis be serious?
human
Hey, I am a 16 year old male, and I have 'fordyce spots' on the underside of my Penis. One however only recently seems to have become inflamed, red, swollen. Should I be worried, or will this disappear? Will it make the spot more prominent because of this swelling?
