Can you get a pimple or acne on the penis?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes, it happens.: It is not unusual to get an infected hair follicle on the shaft of the penis that will resemble an acne pimple that resolves with warm compresses in a few days. If multiple lesions or cluster of lesions, I recommend an examination to rule out herpes, HPV, molluscum or other lesion.

Yes: However, you can also get genital warts on your penis if you are sexually active. Therefore, you should have an examination with your doctor to determine exactly what the proper diagnosis is.
