cyst type bump on penis foreskin
by deyung98, Jul 24, 2007 12:00AM
Hello, about a year ago I noticed a little bump on my penis. I thought it was just a pimple, but no puss would come out. Of course I messed with it and it got infected. I left it alone and it kind of went away or at least went back to the size it was before I played with it. It worries me, but like an *** I have not got it checked out. There is just one and it kind of looks like a wart or small cyst that is flesh colored. It does not hurt or ich. I have never cheated on my wife and after a year of un-protected sex with her she has not gotten one. We know it's not an STD due to the fact that niether of us have been with anyone else. It it just a cyst that I should not worry about??

It does indeed sounds like just a cyst that you shouldn't worry about. Next time you see a doctor, have it checked out so you'll know for sure and be able to forget about it.
Take care.

how long does it take for cyst to dissapear?
by almostlostit, Aug 12, 2007 04:05AM
I am 19 years old, and I am a virgin, when I was going through puberty, I noticed bumps starting to grow around my penis and scrotum and lip. I have identified that the ones on my penis, and possibly my lip, I identified it as Fordyce's Spots, but the ones on the scrotum seem a tad bit different, they are a little bit bigger and closer together, they sometimes are merged together, they are white bumps, and there are hundreds on my penis, scrotum and lip, is there any way to treat it? Are the bumps on my scrotum Fordyce Spots? I just don't know for sure if it too are Fordyce's Spots, I read Accutane might cure it, but I also have Cerebral Palsy, so I am not sure if it safe for me to take it. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
