Suggest Treatment For A Small Bump On The Penis

A few days ago I noticed a extremely small bump on my penis, I m sure it can t be a virus of some sort, though it does scare me. It also causes slight discomfort but only when the actual bump is touched. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being most painful, the pain is maybe a 3 or 4. Its about ballpoint pen sized, ive only had one partner my entire life, Im 20. What could it be?

Hi,

If you are sure about your partner regarding sexually transmitted infection can be ruled out if not it can he herpes. It can be due to bacterial/fungal infection.

Local application of antibiotics/antifungal can help you. Share a picture for conformation. Taking urine complete can help you diagnose infection/sugar.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
