Brief Answer:
Possible sebaceous cyst
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your health query.
I saw carefully your photo, read your query and I understand your concern.
The white pimple seems nothing to worry about. It is a sebaceous cyst, and if it doesn't get inflamed, you don't need to do anything about it.
The fact that it doesn't give you any discomfort or problems in urination, confirms it. You can decide to remove it sometime in the future if you want. But these is nothing locally you can use to remove that.
If you have never done the STI testing, you can do them to make sure that they are negative. I don't see any relation with the presence of the cyst though. and I think your risk of STI is low.
I can tell that you have difficulty of pulling back your foreskin. I would recommend to get circumcised because you may have problems in the future.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please close and rate the answer.
Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
