What Does A White Bump On Penis Indicate?
I have a white bump on the top side of my penis that won t go away. It s been there for a year. I think my penis is a tight fit with my girlfriends vagina, that s when the bump showed up. So when we first started having sex I think all the tight rubbing caused a bump to form and now it just seems to be a hard skin. It s like a scar or callus and I m not sure how to get rid of it.

Hello and welcome to HCM,
White bump on penis could be due to irritation caused by friction.
If the skin has become hard callus like, you can use an emollient for softening of the skin.
Avoid sexual contact or any activity which causes friction and observe if the bump disappears or not.
If the bump or hardness still persists, you need to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and thus management.
Thanks and take care
