Hello,

You have a small, round purple lump on the top of your penis. It is not hurting you but is causing you discomfort due to the sting. Your symptom may be indicative of rough sex or rough sexual activity. You can apply ointment Soframycin for relief. Get urinalysis (R/E and C/S) done.

Take care of your hygiene, do not indulge in any type of sexual activity. It should get well in 4-5 days, if not you should get it clinically examined by a urologist. Other medical conditions that can cause similar symptoms are lichen planus, blemishes, mole, PP, sexually transmitted diseases. Get STD tests done to stay on the safer side. You will be treated accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
