Before I try this iodine method Im going want to try that tetrinoin cream. Has anybody had any results with that?

Also Id like to ask 2 more questions.
1) As I have got loads of these prominent sebaceous glands all over my penis foreskin (probably around 500)can i kind of brush the iodine round the foreskin which would cover most of the pimples but also get on some parts of the normal skin?

So i've started again, same routine expect I'm gonna apply the Vitamin A cream every so often. I'm not sure when you're actually meant to apply cream during this treatment, it seems to help me peel+scab but the instructions were to apply it at the height of the scabbing cycle. So I'm not really sure.

mattiscool, I don't have bumps on my foreskin, but I'd imagine that you're goin to have trouble applying iodine to each individual bump, so unless you can find a really accurate applicator, I think you're only option is to apply iodine to both the bumps and the healthy skin. Just be careful about sensitive areas, like your peehole! damn that would be messy, so have alcohol swabs ready to mop up any runaway iodine.

As for applying to your lips, iodine leaves a yellow-brown stain for a while, so you'll need to find colorless iodine. and its poison, so you'll probably be unable to apply it near your mouth anyway.

Good luck all, hopefully my next update brings better news!

1) Penile pearls (syn. pearly penile papules, papillae of the coronal sulcus or glans penis, hirsuties papillaris penis, coronal papilla)

These congenital tiny swellings look like early genital warts but are arranged in rows regularly around the coronal sulcus or scattered over the glans penis. They are merely hypertrophic papillae with normal epidermal covering. They have no clinical significance and it is important not to misdiagnose them as genital warts.

3) Fordyce Spots

This condition arises from the presence of ectopic sebaceous glands. It may be found under the prepuce and on the vulva. The lesion appear as multiple small, white or yellow spots in submucosa.

If you didn't know, you are supposed to have a couple of small white dots on either side of the frenulum. They are located right by the crease. Thay are called Tysons glands. Groups of small white dots located elsewhere on the foreskin are probably Fordyce spots. PPP, I believe are more skin colored and located along the rim of the glans.

Theyre still getting worse and plus theyre totally all over my foreskin too!

All I can say is I really hope you dont get it as bad as me cos you will feel like crap. It makes you feel very self conscious just talking to anyone, plus expecting a girl to kiss you and not feel disgusted is maybe hoping for to much too!

I dont know what to do! I look at the options, laser treatment will leave scars, tretinoin cream is poisonous if you put on lips, iodine is ofcourse poisonous, and other creams just dont work.
As you can see im in despair and hating my life more and more as the spots keep getting worse!

It is kind of strong for the sensitive skin there, and after a few applications skin may begin to peel. But thats a good sign! It dries out the area. When I say dry, I mean DRY! Leaving moisture is the enemy when it comes to treating these, and this dries out the area.

BE CAREFUL AND TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Now it didn't clear them up completely, but I had them so big and prominent before where they would stand out and be so obviously white. Now they are about skin tone, and have gotten extremely smaller in size. (When I have an erection, they are barely noticable!!!)

One important fact of attempting to treat PPP, no matter what method you try is, to KEEP GOOD HYGIENE. Shower daily and keep the area clean, or else - NO RESULTS! Think about it, and if you can't do this, then you'll have to listen to those damn doctors and dermatologists who tell us to live with it. My bottle is almost done.

One more thing. If you apply this more than 3 times a day, or too much, you will experience a burning sensation. Its somewhat painful, and remember the skin is too sensitive there for certain things, so once again ATTEMPT USING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I'm still looking for that solution which will rid me of these suckers, and their roots.

If anyone has any suggestions on how to get rid of prominent sebaccueous glands under the penis along the shaft, please let me know.

Anyone who has attempted the iodine treatment please put some posts up and just explain how you went about it, whether it worked or not. All info is helpful in some way. I'm gonna keep tryin, maybe up the treatment to 3 times a day for a couple of weeks.

Keep posting all, discussion will always help!
