What Is The Lump Inside The Foreskin Without Any Pain?

Hello, I have a bb sized lump right underneath the foreskin on the right side of my penis.. It is within the skin and if you pull the foreskin away from the shaft you can feel it. No pain at all but was a little swollen in the area when I first noticed it. Any idea what this could be?

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have small lump on under surface of foreskin.

Mostly this could be a sebaceous cyst .However this can be confirmed only on clinical examination by a qualified General surgeon or Urologist.

Penile skin is rich in sebaceous glands hence more prone to get sebaceous cysts due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.

Normally it fades away without treatment however need to be excised in Toto if it increases in size .
