Question 1

what do i have a penis lump from?

Accepted Answer

Depends where and?: It depends where the lump is, how large it is and other factors. Some lumps are bascially cysts or a type of pimple in the skin over the penis. In extreme cases sexually transmitted infections, or tumors or cancers can develope. It is best to see a doctor who can examine the area and give you a proper diagnosis.

Question 2

what is the definition or description of: penis lump?

Accepted Answer

Penis lump: Penis lump = raised lesion on male genitalia.

Question 3

penis lump after shaving, do i have an infection?

Accepted Answer

Folliculits: Boils or secondary infections can sometimes occur with ingrown hairs.

Question 4

vein penis lump always cancer?

Accepted Answer

The shaft: Of the penis has superficial veins, and they can dilate to cause a protuberance; but the most common site of cancer is the head/glans penis.  Why speculate? Go see a doctor to be sure it is not something else not related to cancer.

Question 5

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 6

i was just cleaning up after sex and noticed a purple lump/ spot on the shaft of my penis about 5mm by 5mm what shall i do im panicking?

Accepted Answer

Bruising: This is either a friction caused abrasion or a bruise. If you have no pain and no deformity of the shape of your penis when erect then you can wait and watch. If you have pain or any change in the shape of your penis you need to be seen in person at your family doctor's office.

Question 7

woke up with a red swollen pimple like lump on base of penis, tried to pop it and now its purple and bigger. pimple or something else?

Accepted Answer

Penile Lesion: Never try to 'pop' a lesion on the genitals. You have a significant risk of pushing the infection deeper into the tissues and spreading the infection. You will need to have this seen by a health provider. It cannot be managed without being seen directly.

Question 8

noticed small purple black lumps under foreskin on penis and one on penis head - (this one was already present before sex). could it be genital warts?

Accepted Answer

Penile lumps: Genital warts are a possibility, unless they appeared very suddenly, but it would require visual inspection by a doctor to confirm.

Question 9

i accidentally crushed my penis head on a toilet seat while using the restroom at work the other day. afterwards, a rich purple colored bump appeared on the head, especially a few days later. i was mainly just wondering if this will give me ed?

Accepted Answer

: No, it will not.

Accepted Answer

Possibly vitilgo: Would be better to evaluate with a photo which we would examine privately & report confidentially to you alone.
