A member asked:

Painless bump on penis but its on a hair follicle because there's a hair growing out could it be an std all i did was oral 6 months ago no symptoms?

Dr. J. Lawrence Dohan answered

Sounds benign: STD unlikely. Precise identification requires an exam. Best result with dermatologist.
