    White particles on the edge of the glans may be caused by pearly papules on the penis, balanitis, and genital warts. You can choose local treatment, drug treatment, or physical therapy according to different reasons.

    1. Pearly papules on penis

    Excessive foreskin, masturbation, sexual stimulation and other reasons may cause the glans penis to not appear. Pearly papules are located in the coronal sulcus and resemble small white particles. They are caused by abnormal physiological development and local hygiene and care should be strengthened.

    2. Balanitis

    Excessive foreskin and failure to pay attention to local hygiene may cause fungal and bacterial infections, leading to balanitis. Topical application of metronidazole gel, terbinafine cream and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor can play an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory role.

    3. Genital warts

    Human papillomavirus infection may cause genital warts to appear on the edge of the glans. The warts resemble white particles and can be treated with physical methods such as laser and liquid nitrogen freezing.

    In addition to the above treatments, you can also take oral Chinese medicine under the guidance of a doctor, which can effectively help improve the condition.
