Had Hernia Surgery. Growth In The Area After Pulling Out Bandage That Was Taped To The Penis. What Could It Be?

I just had a hernia sugery. I have very sensitive skin. I noticed that one of the bandages seemed to be taped to a part of my penis two days later this area that I pulled of the tape has expanded I marked the area of growth today to see if it grows anymore tonight or tomorrow. I have also looked up STDs as in my past I was active.. I also looked up Psoriasis, the pictures look similar.. I looked up syphilis also, but that looks like a blister, which I do not have
any ideas?

Hello,
Thanks for writing.

Please dont get worried for your problem.
It is quite likely that is seen due to post operative wound dressing.

The skin will heal fast in no time.
Might be your skin is sensitive to the glue in the bandage or due to long duration application of the bandage.

Hope this helps.
