First of all, you have to know that they only appear on the head of your penis. This means that there are no risks of having this condition spread all over your genital area or worse on your entire body. In fact, the place where the bumps appeared for the first time is also the place where they are going to stay. So, you will not have to worry further about this problem.

Next on the list of worries men usually have when they first find out that they suffer from pearly penile papules is that this condition is going to affect their sexual performances. This is also an unfounded worry, as the pearly penile papules are only affecting the skin and not the other parts of your penis, thus there is no chance of influencing your sexual performances in any way. However, when your penis is constricted, you will feel discomfort and even pain, which may affect you psychologically. Stop thinking about that and try to ignore the feeling and you will see how in time the discomfort will lower down and you will no longer be affected by those little bumps. In addition to that, they are also going to diminish and even disappear in time, so that you will not have to cope with this condition all your life.

In addition to the physical problems, which as you could see are minim, the pearly penile papules are also capable of influencing the self-esteem and self-confidence of the man who has to deal with them. Thus, in addition to a treatment which may make the papules disappear, some patients may also need psychological treatment to overcome their low self-confidence and state of isolation which often results during the time the individual deals with this condition.
