pimple like gorwth on head of penis
by sptill, Mar 04, 2003 12:00AM
I have a very small pimple like growth on the head of my penis. When I squeeze it, a white pus like substance comes out. The sore at times is barely visible and seems to become more noticable when the pus builds up. Doesn't hurt except after I have squeezed the pus out. Like I said, it is a very small sore. I have had it for over one year and I am 30years old. I recently read something about penile cancer and am concerned this is some sort of tumor. Any help is appreciated!

It is much more likely to be a cyst than anything more serious, especially if it's been there for a year. My advice is to leave it alone and show it to a doctor, so you can find out for sure what it is and then most likely ignore it.
