I had a pimple on my penis that i think now is an abscess on the shaft of my penis. i have never had sex, so confident it has nothing to do with stds. should i apply warm compress and neosporin, or see a doctor?

Penile abscess: Your use of the word "abscess" suggests that it's growing larger, right? And maybe redness etc? For sure be seen professinally ASAP; you may need an antibiotic and/or minor surgery to drain the abscess. Don't delay -- get care today. Good luck.
