Common Questions and Answers about Eczema pictures on head
eczema
Recently I noticed a very rough, bumpy texture on my penis head (glans). The bumps are dispersed everywhere on the head but appear to be more densely concentrated at the top of the head lining the bottom portion (away from the meatus, in other words). I could almost call them "scales." They definitely have a bumpy texture. The underside of the glans is much smoother and more "normal" looking and feeling.
This happens to me when I take Zyrtec for seasonal allergies. It usually starts off with itching on the tip of the penis, especially the skin. The head of the penis sometimes has reddish spots, and as you noted, the skin drys and peels off on both the head of the penis and the skin covering it. The itching turns to minor pain a week or two later as the skin drys and stretches, almost with very tiny tears. Anyways, as I mentioned, it starts when I take Zyrtec and stops after that.
When I first notice them, its really itchy, the middle of the area is white, and surrounding it is red. When I take pictures of them, they look like a pimple with a white head. Sometimes a get a group of 2-4, sometimes just one. Some days I will notice up to 6-8 new areas, that can be both arms and both legs the same day. Some days not much. They do vary from smaller spots that come and go to much larger spots that come and go. I have seen my Dr. and Dermatologist, Dr.
I`m 17 year`s old and recently i discovered about 3-4 a tiny about 1/2cm size spots under my penis head. It doesn`t itch nor did i have any sexual activities with another person, I`m still a virgin. Also i`m circumcised. I do masturbate quite alot of times and i`m wondering if thats the cause... due to the friction or some sort. Should i go get it checked out or wait it out, if so what should i apply. and also some seem to fade away. It`s been there for about 2-3 weeks henceforth.
t try any creams at home - get it diagnosed first. A lot of creams for eczema are not meant for the penis, especially for the sensitive head of the penis, and you could make things a lot worse.
If lack of insurance or cost is a factor (if you live in the US), call your local health department and ask what resources they have for someone with your financial situation.
Let us know what happens.
Hello,
From the pictures it looke like eczema. . It is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Allergic reaction can occur to strong soaps, certain foods, plants, metals, cosmetics, dust mites etc.
Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin.
I'm 18 years old, male. I've had this patch for a while. I haven't been outside without my shirt on in a few years so it wouldn't be anything sun related. It doesn't itch. Skin feels raised.
Here are some pictures of it.

Unfortunately from looking at the pictures around Eczema, it does not really look like the bumps that I have on my finger. There is typically no redness around the bumps.
About a year ago, I was diagnosed through an anonymous testing service with HSV-1. From doing a lot of research and seeing pictures, I'm scared that the bumps are from the possibility of having herpes whitlow.

Hello,
I cannot confirm anything without examination but I would like to rule out eczema. Eczema is term for a group of medical conditions that cause the skin to become inflamed or irritated.It is often caused by allergies to common natural inhalants and intolerance to some foods but sometimes it is an overactive response by the body's immune system to a bacterium that normally lives on the skin or an irritant.
So I’ve had a red bump on the head of my penis kind of in the middle that is very faint but other times very red, not painful, no problems urinating nor any other side effects. I’m unsure what it may be. It occurred two weeks after intercourse about 6 months ago and hasn’t gone away since. She was diagnosed with chlamidia however I have no symptoms of it would anyone know if that is possible to have without side effects nor it getting worse?
I am having itching in penis foreskin covering the head and also on the head from last 2 Weeks.
A white substance is getting collected below foreskin of head and it is always wet. Small part of skin under the foreskin has become red and also there is pain when I touch it.
On the head itching is no more there but a part of head has become dark colors.
For last 4-5 days I started using "Quadriderm" cream which contains Clotrimozole IP.
Please suggest me what to do.
I've had kind of a scab-like sore on the top of my ear for at least a year now. It won't heal and go away. I'm pretty sure it was caused by continuous exposure to sun/skin peeling/healing, on and on. Eventually this led to skin that has kind of just remained dead that won't go away. Kind of like that which is found on the calluses of the hand when it is raised and "sharp.
Hi, I just noticed these bumps really maybe about a week ago, but I do think that I've had this condition before while growing up, but just never took notice to it. Does anyone have any idea what this is? I thought it might be eczema or psoriasis but in the pictures I've found of those the skin tends to be dry while my skin is still soft.
hey im sorry to hear about your issue. but my 4yr old son has a similiar issue except his isn't on the head its on the pubic area. i brought him the the dr and he said it was eczema and prescribed him a steroid cream called triamcinolone acetonide 1% twice a day for 7-10 days its only day 2 and its already practically gone. another cream that we used before we went to the dr was aquaphor ointment which you can get over the counter.
At that point I thought all was well until I saw what looked like a small open sore on the head on the glands. It never hurt or wept or crusted over or looked anything like the herpes pictures I could find online and by the time I got back into the clinic (about 2-3 days after) the "sore" was completely gone but some of the glans still appeared red and cracked, they also reswabed for herpes.
Hello,
From the symptoms and pictures,it looks like nummular eczema(stubborn, itchy rash that forms coin-shaped patches on the skin.Found mainly in adults but can oocur in children also) , hives(red, itchy, raised areas of skin that appear in varying shapes and sizes. They have a tendency to change size rapidly and to move around, disappearing in one place and reappearing in other places, often in a matter of hours.Many cases of hives are "idiopathic," meaning no cause is known.
Hello
Eczema - My four year old's eczema seems to always bother him more so at night. He'll wake up in the middle of the night screaming and intensly scratching himself.
Shingles - I don't know too much about it, but it does sound familiar.
Sorry I couldn't be much more help!
