Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Penis

I have a growth above my penis that looks swollen and has a blackhead. I think I had something similar on my testicles before. which I was able to squeeze out eventually. This one concerns me more. I recently shaved my genital area so I am hoping its just an ingrown hair. I am able to squeeze out fluids occasionally, but I am worried it may be infected. Should I give it more time? It has only been four days or so since I noticed it.

Hi,

It appears to be either due to Warts or molluscum contagiosum. Please consult dermatologist / doctor for diagnosis and management. Both the conditions can be treated.

The options would be cauterisation or cryotherapy or medical management.You can discuss with your doctor for further management.

Hope I have answered your query. You can get back for any clarification. Thank you.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
