Question: Can you identify this condition?

A 30-year-old man presents with monomorphic, discrete, smooth, dome-shaped, skin-coloured papules of 1 to 2 mm in length on the corona and sulcus of the glans penis. The lesions are asymptomatic and he thinks that they have increased in number over the past year. His medical history is unremarkable and he is not taking any medications. He is sexually active and occasionally wears condoms.

The most likely diagnosis is

1. Condyloma acuminata

2. Lichen nitidus

3. Pearly penile papules

4. Ectopic sebaceous glands

5. Molluscum contagiosum
