Small Bump On Head Of Penis, And A Small Seed Like Thing Comes Out From That.
I have a small bump on the head of my penis around the edge before it goes to the shaft, it s like on the ring. When i go to pop it a small seed like thing comes out. It doesn t hurt, and the only time I really notice it is when I have an erection , and thats really the only time I can pop it out. And the seed always comes back in the same spot. What is it? I m 22 years old, obviously male, no real medical history , only had sex with one girl but I remember these from before

Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
The small bump on the head of the penis from which the seed comes out is probably a sebaceous cyst.It is a cyst and the seed like thing is sebum so since there is no pain or infection no reason to worry.Since it is recurrent please visit a doctor and get examined and if there is a need he may prescribe you some medicines.
Thanks
