What Is The Treatment For A Bump On The Penis Shaft?
Hi, I ve had this bump on the shaft of my penis for about two and a half weeks. the first week i did not pay much attention to it as i thought it may have been an ingrown hair. later i realized it was like a pimple. after the pimple shape went away it became an open sore, almost like a crater or volcano like sore. Ive been using ointment on it to try and help, it seems to be helping but not completely. what do you suggest i do?

Hi,
If you had unprotected sex - need to rule out sexually transmitted infection. It can be due to syphilis, herpes. Share a picture for confirmation. If not it can be due to bacterial infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
