What is this lump on my penis? Different Diagnosis's

What is this lump on my penis?


Bumps on the penis can have several causes. Many penis lumps are harmless and don't need treatment. Some possible causes are listed below.
If you’re worried about a lump on your penis, see your urologist.

Pearly penile papules
These are small, flesh-coloured lumps normally found on the head of the penis. They usually go all the way around the penis head in one or two rows. These lumps are normal. They are not sexually transmitted or caused by bad hygiene. They don’t cause symptoms and don’t require treatment.

Fordyce spots
Fordyce spots are small yellowish or white spots on the head or shaft of the penis. Fordyce spots are sebaceous glands (tiny glands found near the surface of your skin) without hair follicles. They can also appear on the inside of the cheeks or on the lips, and are present in 80-95% of adults. Fordyce spots are generally harmless and don’t need treatment.

Lymphocele
This is a hard swelling that suddenly appears on the shaft of the penis after sex or masturbation. It happens when the lymph channels in your penis are temporarily blocked. Lymph is a clear fluid that forms part of the body’s immune system. The swelling should soon subside and will not cause any permanent problems.

Lichen planus
Lichen planus is a non-infectious, itchy rash of purple-red bumps that can affect many areas of the body, including the penis.

Genital warts
Genital warts are small fleshy growths or bumps that can appear on the shaft, and sometimes head, of the penis or under the foreskin. They are caused by the human papilloma virus sexually transmitted infection (STI).

Sores or ulcers
A painful blister or sore on your penis could be caused by herpes, which is an STI caused by the herpes simplex virus. A painless sore or ulcer on your penis could be caused by syphilis(another STI).

Peyronie’s disease
Peyronie’s disease is an uncommon condition that causes a thickened area or hard lump (plaque) in the shaft of the penis. This can cause the penis to become curved when it's erect. For more information, read "Is it normal to have a curved penis?".

Molluscum contagiosum
Molluscum contagiosum is a viral skin infection. It causes small, firm, raised spots on the skin, which usually form in little clusters. They can affect the penis and general groin area.

Cancer of the penis
Penile cancer is a rare type of cancer that can cause a sore or lump on the penis, most commonly on the head of the penis. Read more about penile cancer.

No problem. The only issue for me is the PPP. I have yet to find a good smokers toothpaste which i havent found for some fucking reason

None of the above talked about ingrown hair. I noticed that, the lump on my penis occurred right after my second pumping set and there is hair on it. I've shaved off the hair. I'm going to wait until Wednesday or Thursday before I resume my routine.

I have also had problems with ingrown hairs (it can even be painful/uncomfortable), but when I'm using: Philips Bodygroom Series 5000, and not a razor I do not get any problems with ingrown hair. You can even use it on your back, since it got an extension arm you can attach to it.

@DLD really good information you are providing here. Thanks.

I think razor is the cause of the ingrown hair. I will have to look up the Phillips stuff on Google.

Not so expensive. You can find it on Amazon.com for, $44.96 right now.

How else can I use the shaving stick and avoid ingrown hair at the same time? I need suggestions.

The Philips Bodygroom Series 5000. It's good for flat surfaces (also takes longer hairs).

So the fatpad (pubic bone pad), in the groin, and at the back it's awesome.
But I do not want to take it to my balls and penis shaft. One time the blades on the side, that cuts longer hair hacked into my penis shaft, not a good experience. Still a scar. But there must exist some shavers that's perfect for balls and penis shaft. 🤔

But maybe the newer models are better, to prevent this? - Don't know.
I feel the shaver (Phillips Bodygroom) irritate the skin less, and I get no irritation after shaving and when it grows out. But you need to carefully to keep the blades clean. For example if I shave my fat pad (pubic bone pad), I get no irritation afterwards (using water and shaving cream). Even when it grows out I get no skin irritations.
So if you cut the hair cleaner, and do not irritate the skin in the process. Maybe this can prevent ingrown hairs? This is initial thought.

It looks like when the hair grows, and it curves back into the skin, this is when the ingrown hair happens.
I just have been reading on Google.

If you search with these key-words on Google:
mayoclinic ingrown hairs
Then you get good information at the first place in the search result.

But I have compiled some information down below:
This is what the Mayoclinic are talking about:

• Use a harp razor/clipper.
They are talking about using a single blade razor, in order to not get to close to the skin with the blade. But then you would not be really smooth? But they are sayin that this is one parameter that can prevent ingrown hairs.

• Rinse the razor/clipper often, keep it clean. Leftovers of the hairs in the blade/blades can irritate the skin surface when you shave, and can then pull in the skin, so that the hairs draw back into the skin.
Also if you are pulling at your skin when shaving, for example to get a closer shave (you spread out the skin with your hands), this would cause the hair to draw back into the skin, and you get ingrown hairs.
They are also saying: If your hairs are curly, you have a higher risk of experience ingrown hairs.

• They also talk about keeping the skin clean before shaving, washing with warm water, but this is pretty obvious. But I write all the information I could find about ingrown hairs.
• Make the hairs and the skin soft before a shave. For example: Applying a softening shaving cream ~10 minutes before a shave. Maybe a intimate shave is best to do, after a warm shower, I think so.

• No pulling of the skin when shaving.
I think they are saying;
- You should not deform your skin to much, and to let the shaver do it's work, without pushing it in so hard against your skin. The need for a super-sharp shaver.
• They are also taking about when using a hair-clipper to not shave without a distance comb attached to the shaver. Keep it a distance from the skin.

They are stating the main reason for ingrown hair is:
• Shaving creates a sharp edge on hair, making it easier to pierce the skin.

Shaving in the direction of the hair growth. But this maybe is hard if you got curly hairs.
I hope this will clear things up. I didn't know these facts before writing this, so I learned something today as well.

By the way: I have not forgot about that you wanted a list of some supplements that could be good to take. I'm working on that.

Thanks for sharing this info @squirt_inducer_man. I think washing the penis with warm water right before shaving will do it for me. And also, changing the razor after each shave.
