What Causes Oval Shaped Bump On The Bottom Side Of Penis?
I have a oval-shaped bump on the bottom side of my penis. I haven t had sex since last February but I used a condom. Is this an STD? It s a reddish color and it has a dome shape to it. I ve done research on genital warts and i ve found that they mainly come in clusters. This is just one single bump. It felt like there were two smaller bumps under my skin about last week. now it feels like they ve bot combined tomake an oval shape. Any ideas on what this might be. It does hurt a little to touch. Also it looks like I m peeling a little bit on the bump. Please reply ASAP! Thanks Doc.
Hello Thanks for query, Based on the information that you have provided the oval shaped bump that you have at base of the penis is mostly a Sebaceous Cyst .
Penile and scrotal 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 consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment.
If needed you may need to get it excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac). Dr.Patil.
