Question 1

i have raised flesh colors lumps on my penile shaft that are painless and some tend to go away?

Accepted Answer

Bumps on the penis: Hi

this could be a benign condition known as sebaceous cysts. Or, it could be warts.  I would recommend at least having a medical expert take a look at them sometime to make sure they are not warts and thus a viral illness with the human papilloma virus.

Question 2

i have a slightly large lump on my penile shaft it been there for a couple days it won't pop doesn't hurt on when squeezed want to know what it is?

Accepted Answer

Could be a number of: different things, but the only way to really know is to see your Dr. It may be embarrassing to you, but it is normal for doctors to examine the private parts.  Looking things up on the internet can lead to misdiagnosis and unnecessary anxiety, so I always recommend seeing a Dr FIRST.Also, it is probably a good idea not to try and pop it, as this may lead to infection/inflammation and make it worse

Question 3

red, raised lumps on penile shaft?

Accepted Answer

Exam needed: You will need to see a health care provider for an examination to determine the likely cause of the bumps.

Question 4

hi i have a very small red lump on my penile shaft anything to be worried about it sometimes disappears when i wash well what could it be thanks .

Accepted Answer

Hemangioma?: A "red lump" on the skin (penis or anywhere) that vanishes and reappears pretty much has to be related to blood vessels, e.g. a hemangioma (blood vessel "mole") or telangectasia (a small tangle of blood vesels), etc. These could be more prominent with increased blood flow, e.g. during erection, warm water, etc. No STD would do this; e.g. I doubt a genital wart. But show a doc you remain concerned.

Question 5

i seem to have an immovable hard lump in the tissues of the penile shaft, not on the skin, doesn't hurt and my penis doesn't bend when erect?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you and your symptoms warrant evaluation by a physician.

Question 6

i had a small lump on my penile shaft 2 weeks ago & then it started getting bigger, i had very little pain, but uncomfortable during sex?

Accepted Answer

Here are some...: What you described may suspect the occurrence of an infected sebaceous gland, which may gradually enlarge to burst and drain in 3-7 days, and self-healed in 5-10 days. But, without a direct look, it is still hard to give a right diagnosis.  If in doubt. seek timely evaluation and counseling.

Question 7

small painless lump under the skin of the side penile shaft, doesn't seem to move and is more noticeable when erect, it can be felt when flaccid?

Accepted Answer

See in real life: Skin bumps can sometimes be diagnosed via video. A patient can try HealthTap PRIME for a virtual consult (there is a fee). Otherwise, one's primary care doctor or a dermatologist can examine the bump. It could be a closed comedone, a plugged sebaceous gland or follicle, an unusual mole, or less likely a wart. It may be best to get it examined, so that the doctor gets the texture and feel of it.

Question 8

i have a soft swollen lump on the right side of the penile shaft. it hurts sometimes but isn't bad. there is no discoloration or bumps. what is it?

Accepted Answer

Few thoughts: Could just be a skin infection. You should either make an appointment her or see your doctor for exam and diagnosis so you can be treated

Question 9

2 little painless lumps under penile shaft in middle that only visible and felt when very erect.(masterbution time). it's not moving. no other symptoms. when penis is normal it cannot be felt or seen. i haven't had sex. but i do masterbution?

Accepted Answer

: They are likely lymphoceles which are caused by prolonged masturbation.

Question 10

i have a painless very small lump under the skin of my penile shaft on the left side, i am not sexually active and it doesn't hurt to touch or move?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely serious: If you've never had sex, then its not an std.  Cysts are fairly common on the penis, other possibilites include a large gland, an inflamed follicle (from masterbation) or an enlarged vein.  I would recommend you see a urologist or dermatologist for confirmation and reassurance.
