Small Painless White Bump On Penis, Not Reduced In Size. Circumcision Done. Treatment?
Hi, I was circumcised a few months ago now for medical reasons. ( Phimosis ) After everything had healed up, I noticed that there was a small and painless white bump near where the stitch line was. It still has not gone away, and I am wondering exactly what it is, and if it is easy to get rid of or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You have undergone circumcision few months back.What you have noticed as bump over a suture line.But it is nothing to be worried about.Most likely it is a scar which takes 3months to heal completely It should resemble like a normal skin.over a period of 6 months.
