Scar tissue under head of penis?

Posted , 6 users are following.

I've had this scar tissue underneath the head of my tissue and under my foreskin for a while and I need help identifying what it is? I presumed it was a cut however it hasn't healed (I've had it for at least a year - can't remember exactly how long). It hurts to the touch, however masturbation is painless and sex is mostly painless, however it can start to hurt if too much pressure is put on it through my foreskin. Can anyone suggest what it may be as I can't find anything online and advise whether I should see a doctor or not?

    I don't understand how you could ask opinions here "to know whether you should see a doctor or not" ...you have wound on your penis, what if it's cancer? you need to see a doctor ASAP!!!

    As for my personal opinion? I think you have SYPHILIS! ...easily treatable with one injection...or you could choose to just ignore it, not get that one injection that cures your syphilis..and probably die a horrible syphilis related death.

    You need to go to the nearest sex clinic or to your GP as soon as possible (like literally..tomorrow), they will give you syphilis blood test and if it's positive you will get just one injection of antibiotics in your buttocks and you're cured, if you do have syphilis you can die if you don't get that injection.

    You need to see a medical professional about this as soon as possible, otherwise you risk developing a very severe condition.

    Contact a GP or go to any Walk-In Service such as a major sexual health or GU Medicine service in the area in which you live. GU services in the UK are known as GUM Clinics and most are are based at general hospitals. Look them up at least and phone one at least and say you need an urgent face to face appointment
