After looking through a lot of discoloration threads and pictures, I still can't seem to find anything similar.
I have an area of concentrated discoloration. It is dark, and appears from some angles to even be sunken in a little bit. I'm not sure if this is bruising or some kind of infection, but it's unlike anything I can find on the internet and I'm wondering if any of you have discoloration like this (pics below). I recently decided to stop masturbating as it appeared to be spreading a tiny bit when I did (although I may just be imagining this).
I went to the doctor and he said it was nothing to worry about, but I don't think he really got a good look at it. I can't get into the dermatologist until December, so I'm wondering if I should be worried about it until then. As you can see, it appears to be "taking out" some of the band above, and I'm afraid that if it spreads I may suffer some permanent loss of tissue.
Prior to the arrival of this, I had been doing a couple weeks of really slow, firm masturbation with my thumb's emphasis on this area of the penis (almost like jelqing). It seems that this might be connected, but I'm not completely sure.
Here are some pictures:

You can also see three lines below it which appear to be stretch marks of some sort.
Thanks for any help.
