Q: i have a small, dry, red bump on my penis. i masturbate about once a day but have never had sex?

Get it checked: Masturbation is normal &amp; healthy at your age. Lump unlikely related to this. However, best to get the lump checked by urologist or your Dr. it it's bothering you. Almost certainly benign, but do you you want to live with it forever?
