As shown in the pic i have this squishy lump on the base of the skin for about 1 month now. it is not painful and there is no discharge from it, no itching that i can feel. today i noticed another one like this growing about 2 cm below it. i am very worried if it is cancer or gential warts. Also a small white colored pimple has developed on my penis but it is very small and looks different then these. what do i do? i am not sexually active right now but i had sex with a prostitute around 5 months back but wore a condom. Please let me know what should i do?
