What Causes Lump On Base Of Penis Which Is Getting Bigger In Size?

i have a lump at the base of my penis, just as my scrotum begins. its slowly getting bigger and occaisionally i feel discomfort from it. when i stretch it, i can see the normal white dots where the hair grows but its a funny shape underneath. i do remove my hair from there so its possible it could be an ingrown hair but it looks strange.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Since this is the most important part of body , I would advise you to get removed by surgery .
This is either a lipoma or a sebaceous cyst.
Do not fiddle with it, may get infected and then difficult to get a CURE.
I find this answer helpful
