What Is The Medication For The Bump On The Foreskin With Pus?
I have a small flesh coloured bum on my foreskin, It isn't irritating or painful. I noticed when i was going to urinate. i applied pressure and a small amount of puss was excreted from the bum but the bum has not reduced in size. I have not ever had intercourse of any sexual interactions. what is it?

Hello
Thanks for query.
Based on what you have posted I would state that you have staphylococcal infection of hair follicle (Boil) over foreskin .
However this can be confirmed only on clinical examination by a qualified Physician.
You need to take antibiotics like Doxicycline twice daily along with anti inflammatory medicine Diclofenac twice daily for 5 days .
If persists consult General surgeon for evaluation You may need it to get drained .
