What Does A Bump On The Penins Indicate?
Hello. I have a rather awkward issue. So, to preface this, I am 17 and not sexually active and have not been for at least 3 months. About 2 weeks ago, i notice a small bump, barely noticeable on the shaft of my penis, but i figured it was just something like an ingrown hair or pimple, so i let it alone. Its still present and i have tried popping it a few times, but it is starting to feel solid in ways, so i am doubting it is any sort of fluid pocket. Currently maybe 1-2 mm in size or so as a rough guess. Any ideas of what it may be?
