White Bump in Pubic Region

by orbitorbit, Apr 11, 2007 12:00AM
Hello,
  I had unprotected sex in early January and contracted Chlamydia, which is now healed...lesson learned. However, I have had one whitish, pea-sized raised bump on my pubic region (inch and half above penis) since mid-January (about 3 months). It has not gone away and has possibly gotten slightly bigger. Its completely white, almost blister-like, but has not popped or pussed at all. There is no pain emanating from the bump except for slight irritation from the hair in that region. I feel like if it was an in-grown it wouldve popped by now. Don't think it's herpes...syphillis possibly?
Thanks for your help!

Sounds like it could be molluscum or follucitis (probably follucitis because of the white head) Definitely not herpes or syphilis. I'd bring it by your derm so they can do a culture and treat you accordingly. Nothing to worry about, though.
