What Causes Red, Painful Bump On Foreskin?
i have a small bump on my foreskin near the vein for a few months, 1 day the bump swelled and the area was red and painful. a few days later, the red painful bump was leaking what looked like pus. so i burst it. out came the pus and blood. i left it to scab for a few days. and then it was leaking pus again. so i applied pressure again and now there are 2 small yellow/white dots on the bump. what is happening doctor?

Hi,
If you had any unprotected sex, it can be a sexually transmitted infection. If not it can be due to acne or abscess. A local antibiotic application can help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
