Suggest Treatment For Bump On Shaft Of My Penis
I have a small bump on the shaft of my penis, on the foreskin. It doesn't hurt to the touch, doesn't burn when I pee, none of the usual STD symptoms. It kind of looks like a pimple. I got it about a week ago. I had masturbated about 4 or 5 times that day and was sweaty, so I think it's just from the sweat and friction. A little help?

Hello
Thanks for query ,
A bump on foreskin after heavy masturbation that you have developed a week ago is mostly a Staphylococcal infection of hair follicle or sweat gland .
You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Doxicycline along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.
Ensure to avoid sexual encounters or masturbation till it heals up completely.
Thanks
