Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi on the shaft of the penis just below the head to the right side I discovered a white “seed” type thing just under the skin. It developed about 6 months ago and has not grown nor does it cause any pain. I can move it around somewhat under the skin, it’s a little smaller than a sun flower seed. What could this be and can it be taken care of? Thank you!
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It may be milia most probably. It is a cyst containing keratinous material. It is a benign condition and may be kept untreated. If it is embarrassing,it may be removed by electrocautery under local anesthesia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
