White head/ Pimple on foreskin?

Posted , 4 users are following.

I just noticed this under my foreskin over a year ago. It has not grown or shrink, nor does it itch, its just there but I'm worried it could be something worse. I've had 4 partners, but tested negative in an STD test a couple of years ago, so the possiblity is still there, but what is this exactly? 

I look for whitehead and pimple pictures, but never found any. Its on my foreskin and doesn't spread or do anything. Any tips or advice is helpful, thank you.

    What you are describing is a cyst. Is it liquid under the skin? Not hard skin? Cysts can be caused by a number of things, but for whatever reason, you should definitely have it looked at. Cysts (especially ones that sound like what you're explaining) might need to be drained to prevent infection or tissue damage. When in doubt, get it checked out.

      Yes, its all wet skin. Nothing hard or anything, its liquid and I've touched it with another part of the foreskin so it doesn't spread on skin contact like warts does. 

      As for my personal life, I always used condoms and the last time I was sexually active was about 1.5yrs ago or longer. Makes sense if its a cyst, but would it go away on its on then? Is there another option if I can't drain it out?
