Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy bump on the penis shaft which is due to infection of hair follicle.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take oral tablets of Terbinafine for 1 week. You should maintain proper hygiene of area. You should visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription. Do Not touch or prick it with any sharp object. Take tablet of cetirizine 10 mg once daily for symptomatic relief from itching. Apply moderately potent topical steroid of triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% cream twice daily at affected sites. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined if symptoms of persisting. You should start proper course of medications after complete examination.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
