Strange spot

[iamlegend545]

Hi iv got a weird red spot with a black pin like hole in the middle about halfway up my penis, it is painless and cant even tell its there. I do have sex regularly however recently we have stopped due to this spot. iv been worried about it so if anyone could suggest any possible causes that would be helpful.

From what I seen on my bf, I would assume this is just a blackhead, in that case you can gently try and squeeze it out. On the other hand it could be a new mole, which might need to be checked by a doctor, but It sounds more like a more to me.

Hello,
It can be a cyst or a blocked hair follicle. Other possibility is of genital warts if you are sexually active. Get it evaluated from a doctor to confirm the diagnosis.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Have you attempted to 'treat it like a pimple', squeezing it, or gently using a sterile needle (heat the needlepoint with a lighter and allow to cool for sterilization) to see if there is anything inside of the 'hole'?  I would try that first.  Then I would have to resign myself to go to the doctor.  You don't want that to spread or cause further irritation.
