Suggest Treatment For Large Lump On Penis

default
Posted on Fri, 30 Jan 2015
Question: I have recently. within last 2-3 weeks noticed a large "boil like" lump on my penis. It does not hurt. at first i thought it might be an ingrown hair, but i do not believe that to be the case. I'm not sure, but was thinking possibly "cat scratch fever" as i sustained a nasty scratch from one of our cats around the same time. although the cat scratch, was on my chest.

Please, provide an image for inspection!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this lump and all the disturbing thoughts this has caused you. I will suggest that you upload an image for review. The information alone is not helpful in understanding what the possible cause of this condition is and what treatment option should we be looking at. It would be unlikely to be a cat fever scratch as you sustained no scratch here. To upload an image, click on the upload file icon on the right of your computer interface and follow the instructions.

I hope to hear from you so as to make a personalized review and helpful suggestions/recommendations.
