    Rice-shaped pimples in the coronary sulcus may be caused by balanitis, penile papules, genital warts, etc., and can be treated accordingly.

    1. Balanitis

    If you do not pay attention to the cleaning of the glans area, bacterial and inflammatory infections may occur, and it may also cause rice-like pimples. You need to wipe it with saline in time, and then apply erythromycin ointment, dexamethasone ointment, fluocinolone acetonide cream, etc.

    2. Penile papules

    When papules appear on the penis, small rice-shaped pimples usually appear in the coronal sulcus. You need to go to the hospital for examination in time, and can be treated with laser surgery.

    3. Genital warts

    If you are infected by human papillomavirus, rice-like pimples will also appear in the coronary sulcus. You need to apply imiquimod cream, interferon gel, acyclovir cream and other drugs as directed by your doctor for treatment.
