The answer is yes and no. A pimple is actually the result of blockage of the skin's pore and it can happen anywhere on the body: face, back, legs, even genitals and elsewhere. Pimples is a common and frequent condition that effects the oil glands of the skin. Oil glands are found in every hair follicle and when they become clogged or inflamed, they can lead to pimples breakouts.
What are normal pimples on penises and what are not?
It is normal to have small pearly penile papsules, and yes, they do look like pimples. They are really tiny glands. They usually are in the margins of the penis head.
Swelling of the skin called lymphocele that might appear after masturbation or sexual intercourse is also normal. They usually appear on the foreskin or in the shaft of the head. It's normal and goes away by itself.
So what's not normal? basically, if it causes discomfort like itching, it's red or purple, it has pus, it stinks or it looks gross it is not normal penis pimples.
It is alright and just to be concerned when we see spots or pimples on our penis and of course we want them gone, but whatever you do, do not squeeze your penis pimples in clearing them, don't make matter worse. Your hands can spread bacteria that might have caused the penis pimples in the first place. It is not fast acting but if you suffer swelling an ice pack should help reduce swelling redness and pain of the penis pimples. There also are healthy and safe solutions to get rid of penis pimples, the best comes in organic creams solutions. But if you feel your condition is not a simple matter of penis pimples, i recommend you see a doctor or a dermatologist as soon as possible as you could have a case of genital warts.
