Well I have had this dark patch/spot/area on my foreskin for quite a while. It seems that I haven't had it all of my life...but probably for at least 6 years or so (maybe longer). When the penis isn't hard, I can't even see it...but I can when I roll back the foreskin (it is on the inside of the foreskin on top). When the penis becomes erect it is visible but since it is stretched out it doesn't look nearly as dark. It doesn't itch...it isn't raised...it is just some sort of blemish that seems to have been there since I have hit puberty. Is it some sort of birthmark? I thought I read somewhere on this site before about chicken pox scars as well.Thanks

What is it? (Dark area on penis)

It might be a birthmark-like thing. Even though they are called birthmarks, they can appear later.

I have a large dark patch on the underside of my penis too, and its not my circumcision scar. It's completely normal and common - lots of guys have this. It's just normal skin color variation.

I have a few myself. They are birth marks I believe, So don't worry. I've got 3 little ones on my shaft, and my fiancee thinks its cute.
