It's hard for me to tell you, because I don't know what it is. Assuming it's a benign lesion of some sort, perhaps your dermatologist or urologist can cauterize it. On the other hand, if it's been there for years, perhaps it would be best to leave it alone. I suggest you explore the pluses (chances of success) and minuses (like scarring risk) before proceeding.
Best.
