Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have what is called as Sebaceous cyst.

The penile skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.

Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.

Please take broad spectrum antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medication like Diclofenac twice daily

Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.

Ensure to clean your genitals with warm water twice daily.

Consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation .If needed you may need to get it excised in Toto under local anaesthesia.
