Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a bump on the shaft of my penis where the skin attaches to the head close to the opening and the foreskin. What could this be? It itches when I need to urinate. I have a similar spot on my scrotum. Could this be linked to masturbating too much?
Hello, There are many things that can cause bumps on the penis and scrotum. It is not likely from masturbation. It can be something simple like a skin tag or something infectious like a sexually transmitted infection or genital warts. It is best to see a doctor who can look at this in person and give you a diagnosis and suggest appropriate treatment. Regards
