I was talking to my friend about STD’s. We are males, 25 years old, and we are interested in signs that STD is occurred. Also we have heard about penile pearls and that is something we are interested into. Is that symptom of some STD too? How can you explain us what penile pearls actually are?

If you are interested and worried about the possibility of venereal disease you should inspect the genitalia frequently. If you notice for the first time in life certain conditions, it may be sign of some sexually transmitted disease. There are also some conditions with no clinical significance and for which is required only reassurance. One of those conditions is penile pearls. Other terms are pearly penile papules, papillae of the coronal sulcus or glans penis, hirsuties papillaris penis, and coronal papilla. Those are tiny swellings are congenital anomalies. Penile pearls may look like early acuminate warts but are arranged in rows around the coronal sulcus. Also they might be 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.
