Suggest Treatment For Painful Pimple On The Penis Of A Child
Question: Hi,
My son has a pimple on his penis. Unfortunately, before he told me about it, he tried popping it and said it bled heavily for a few minutes.
Note-he is 12 and not sexually active. How should we treat it? Is Muciprocin okay to use to avoid infection?
