What Causes A Small Red Bump On The Penis Shaft After Masturbation?

Hi! This is kind of awkward to talk about, but here I go! I m a 19 year old guy, and after masturbating one night, I woke up to find a small red bump on the back shaft of my penis. It doesn t cause any pain when I pee or leave it alone, but when I try and masturbate, it can be really uncomfortable-so much so that I can t even touch that part of my penis. It feels more like a small sore or blister but I ve never been sexually active with anyone before so I m not sure what could be causing this? Should I have my doctor examine it, or wait it out a few days to see if it goes away? Thank you!

Hello,

* Small red bump after masturbation indicates possible friction induced erosion of the skin layers and as there is no history of sexual intercourse (sexually transmitted diseases or infections are automatically ruled out).

Following measures will help you for faster recovery

- cleansing of penis with antiseptic liquid or soap ( even if it burns )
- local application of ice
- use of polymycin cream if no history of drug sensitivity
- avoid further masturbation till recovery
- wear loose, clean, cotton inner wears
- avoid tight jeans

* Do follow up after 2 days about the progress or early as per your need in this issue. You will be fine within short time span, do not worry at all.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
