What Causes Lump Under The Skin On Penile Shaft?
Hi, I have a lump, smaller than a BB, under the skin on the shaft of my penis. It appeared a few days ago, and I'm unsure if it's bad or not. I've looked all over the internet and many people have this, but I have not found ANY explanation whatsoever.

Hi,thanks for the query to HCM.
Dear,I understood your health concerns.
Based on the facts of your query, your penile shaft lump could be,furuncle from hairfollicle on the penile shaft, or could be from HPV pappule.
Both could be treated by medicines if needed.Nothing to worry about it.
Consult Dermatologist if need be.
Hope this reply would help you to plan further treatment in your case.
Good Day!!
