Small Boil/s On Penis
Posted: 05-03-07 04:34am

Guys ,

one or two months' ago, i noticed there was a bump on my penis (not on the head, but the body of it), eventually i realized it was a boil/pimple of some sort and i decided to pinch it. (i know.. i'm disgusted and grossed out myself)

True enough, some puss came out of it. Anyway a few months down the road, i noticed that the bump is still there. Now i just noticed there are smaller pimple/boils around there, around 3 of them now.

I've never had sex and i always wash/clean well.

Someone please help, i 'm a tad too shy to go see a doctor.

Well unfortunately they are something that needs to get looked at. If you are sexually active, this may be an std. Otherwise, it sounds like an infection. Even if it is just severe acne, you can still take medicine for that; I had to when I was a kid and it really helped.

A pimple is an infected hair follicle. It could be something as simple as a few pimples, but only a doctor could say for sure. It sounds like you've had them for long enough to warrant a trip to the doctor just in case.

No, doctors are not going to diagnose you from a picture. Most of us are not doctors on here anyway.
