A member asked:

I have a large pus filled lump on my penis, what could this be?

Dr. James Lin answered

Here are some ...: As described, it may represent a non-infected sebaceous cyst, which is right beneath the skin and painless. It may be painful if infected. Of course, without a direct look and palpation, an accurate Dx is not easy to come by. If in doubt, see Doc timely. .
