Question 1

what can cause a painful bump on my penis?

Accepted Answer

Penis  bumps: Penis bumps can be many things. Some STDs, some not. Only general advice can be given without a photo or physical exam. Top 2 photos are non-STDs: Fordyce spots (sebum which can be extricated by M.D. or left alone), Infected hair follicle (plucked and kept clean). Bottom 2 photos are STDs (HPV and Molluscum) to be evaluated by your MD so s/he can rule out other STDs and council you for prevention.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Could: Be several things including Sexually Transmitted Infections. Rather than list those its best to get an exam and ensure a proper diagnosis

Question 3

im 17, no sexual experience and i just found a painful red spot bump on my circumcised penis?

Accepted Answer

If so, may be...: If so, the mentioned spot may be just a "infected" sebaceous gland. So, it's reasonable to just watch and see over the next 7-10 days as long as being tolerable to you. Such a bump may resolve or get bigger and rupture in time like a pimple. Without more detailed Hx and a direct look at it, it;s oftentimes hard to come up an accurate Dx. Therefore, see Doc timely. Best wish...

Question 4

penis lump appears right under the head, bottom side of shaft right before ejaculating and stays for about 15 minutes. non painful. noticed 2 yrs ago?

Accepted Answer

Physiological: It appears from your description that the affected part of the shaft of your penis retains blood before ejaculation as part of a normal physiological response. I would get it checked if it persists even after the sexual experience or becomes symptomatic.

Question 5

hey. i have a small black line bump on my penis since yday. its like a small bump, but you can see black spot or black line on it. its kind of painful or irritating at times. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

: Since it is impossible for us to visualize this abnormality here, you should contact your primary care doctor for further evaluation. Good luck.

Question 6

i have a bump on my penis shaft, and i don't know what it is. it isn't painful or anything. i popped it once only blood and pus came out. any ideas?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Without seeing this it is impossible to diagnose.  Show this to a doctor and get it treated.

Question 7

hello! me and a girl had sex tonight. she wanted to try some bdsm stuff with my penis. she used tape around it, pretty tightly at one point. when she took it off there was a big purple bump on my penis which now looks like a bruise. not painful. help?

Accepted Answer

: The skin of the penis can be bruised from a traumatic event as described. I expect it is and may self-heal over the next few weeks. Application of a warm compress will increase blood flow and may speed recovery.

Question 8
