A member asked:

I have a medium sized red bump on penis and it hurts to touch. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. If the bump is on the body of the penis, it could be infection of a hair follicle. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
