Suggest Treatment To Cure Skin Burn On Penis
Hello,
I am 24 years old and have never had intercourse. About four years ago I burn my penis while doing some welding. The burns healed just fine but there was a small scar. 1 year ago I noticed a blood blister where the burn was. It does/didnt hurt but it is a bit unsightly. It does not bleed when I masturbate but the look of it bothers me. I do not have health ins and can not pay the doctor bills the have this checked. I do know however that it is not an STD I was just checked about 1 month after I saw the blood blister. The blister is red/purple in color raised off the skin on the side of my penis. Please help in finding a way to get rid of this. Thank's.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I have gone through your history it would be more easier to make diagnosis if I could get the picture of the effected skin area. If you would have came to me my first concern would be to rule out squamous cell carcinoma of skin because it is very common to develop skin cancer at the area which has been previously burned. What I would suggest you is to go to a urologist or dermatologist and get the skin biopsy of the effected area that would be the best investigation for diagnosis of your condition.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
