A young boy even at the age of 11 can have pearl penile papules forming on their male organ. This can be very frightening to a young guy at this age. I have 2 sons of my own, and I would definitely inform them there could be a possibility that they might get them. At least this way they would not hide them thinking they have cancer or some other disease.
Teenagers are also very vulnerable, and when they get these they think they have contacted some form of sexually transmitted disease, or if they have not had sex then they know something is wrong with them and they usually hide this condition for years even from parents, doctors, and friends. It is very important that you discuss this condition with your teenager and discuss it whether they are male or female. It will help the male understand what might be going on in their body.

The papules can be irritating to some men while they are having sex and others have reported that they don't bother them at all. The most significant problem seems to be psychological. This can lead to anxiety and depression over the situation. It is best to find help as soon as possible for your mental health and well-being.
There are many different treatments for pearly penile papules. Some have tried oils such as tree tea oil, castor oil, and eucalyptus oil. Some men have tried vitamin A and vitamin E too. Some have used mud mask and even an oatmeal mask. Talcum powder and Epsom salt has also been tried. Men have tried to remove them in the privacy of their own home and this has led to no positive results only a very painful recovery. I have not heard of any of these remedies curing pearly penile papules.
