    Red spots on the glans that are not painful or itchy may be caused by balanitis, genital herpes, pearly scrotal papules, etc., and need to be adjusted according to individual reasons.

    1. Balanitis

    This is a relatively common disease, mainly caused by inflammation. After being stimulated by inflammation, redness may appear. Erythromycin ointment, mupirocin ointment, fusidic acid ointment and other drugs need to be applied under the guidance of a doctor.

    2. Genital herpes

    Red blood on the glans may also be caused by genital herpes, and is related to viral infection. It is necessary to use ribavirin tablets, acyclovir tablets, Four Seasons Antiviral Mixture and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

    3. Pearly scrotal papules

    Red spots on the glans may also be caused by pearly scrotal papules, which need to be treated with erythromycin ointment, amoxicillin capsules, roxithromycin dispersible tablets and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

    In addition to the above common reasons, it may also have something to do with not paying attention to local hygiene.
