Weird Boil? Carbuncle? on back of penis head.

Posted , 3 users are following.

So I've had these pus filled spots on the back of my penis head for a while now but recently they've been inflamed and have become a sort of boil like spot. I've never had sex however I masturbate semi-frequently, could it just be a hygiene issue or did I somehow catch something? The spot itself is tender although I don't feel any constant pain. I know the answer may be obvious but my current primary care doctor is new so I was thinking about going to Planned Parenthood to have it looked at. Any general ideas of what this is and or how to take care of it?image

    Looks like a cyst. Get a referral to a urologist or a dermatologist.
