Question : I have a tiny black spot (about the size of a pin head) on the tip of my penis!, near the urethra opening. Slightly rounded and shiny. Looks similar to blood blister. Not painful, and has been there for some time. Doesn't seem to change.

Brief Answer:
Supportive care

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and i understand your concern. Bumps on penis are mostly benign and self resolving. Usually clogged sebaceous pores lead to it and needs just supportive care. Do not pop, poke or pick that and maintain a good hygiene. Avoid friction, masturbation, tight clothing and vigorous coitus, Wait and see. These wills elf resolve in a couple of weeks. If it persists you may visit a doctor, they will do physical exam and sort out the further management which i sure wont come to that.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.

Khan
