Posted , 2 users are following.

hi guys went to the doctors yesterday and they said it's a skin infection. but I I'm not 100% sure anyone know if this is dangerous and may disappear. they have gave me a cream for it to. It doesn't hurt or itch but if I touch it, it hurts a little. I am sexually active no STI in both of us. I am only 16. thanks for replying if you do! it won't let me attach picture but it's small lump red with a white dot on top. sorta like a blister.

    Sorry I forgot to mention it's on the shaft part on the back of the penis.

    Could be just a pimple, they can hurt on touch if they are deep. I would follow what your doctor said and if it doesnt change/disappear go to dermatologist.

    How long have you had this? and is there anything else you could share with us to help with diagnose? Picture would help a lot but I dont know how legal that is on this website considering you are underaged.

      Hi Mikael I can't attatch a photo no because of age. And it looks like a pimple/blister it's not big and it's not small it's big enough to feel and see it. at the moment it looks like it's going to pop it's got white on it and it looks like a white liquid inside it. thanks for helping and replying. hope you reply!

      If it is pimple DO NOT pop it by yourself, let it happen naturally. Keep applying what your doctors gave you but do it gently to not damage whatever it is you have as it could make things worse. Observe it for few more days, if it is pimple it will probably pop and be gone by then. They tend to last for 5-7 days.
