Hi... I'm only 16 and have never had sex of any type. Recently I discovered a pimple-like thing on my penis. I am circumcised and it is in between the head of the penis and actual body of the penis. It is raised slightly and if squeezed puss comes out... just like a pimple. It is slightly painful... like a pimple. To be honest, I do masturbate (with lube) quite often and I was wondering if this could have contributed to it. If you are a doctor or some type of specialist, I can e-mail you a picture of the pimple-like thing... just ask and give me your e-mail. Thank you.

Depending on the size, it could well be a slight infection (exactly what a pimple is). If you want to be on the safe side, id put any antibiotic ointment on it just to prevent infection. And id also cut out on the lube until it is healed. If you want to send a picture of it, you can, but i dont think it's necesary. Just in case, my email is monomat99@yahoo.com
Im not a eurologist, but i have some experience in this field.

If you haven't yet had sex with a partner, the pimple-like thing is probably just that...a pimple. They can occur on the penis. If it doesn't clear up within a normal time frame (say a week or so), it may be infected or a sign of another problem (an STD, if you are sexually active). I wouldn't worry about it too much unless it continues without clearing up. At that point, I'd recommend a visit to a doctor.
Oh, and masturbation has nothing to do with it.

Hi...it's not gross. but very common in a man's life cycle and it's not necessary every one shoud get this.I have seen numerous patients like this.Unless I see personally I can't assure the diagnosis, Ok ... by the way you explain it.... It 's not a pimple and pimple appears only in the face, (people can name it any damn thing)and it looks like at the site of frenulum ( the tie, -joint site of glands penis and the shaft ) people are misleading you.( I donno whether you faking or for real, as i see all the answers). It sounds like a Acne or a sebacious cyst for me. You says that you have a pus discharge-is there any fishy / rotten smell from the discharge?. Since you say I'm not exposed, But you are not sure whether it is a pus or fatty substance. I'm sure,you need a medical intervention, whether it's Acne or sebacious cyst. If it is a Acne or sebacious cyst, the entire capsule has to be removed surgically. Also as you mastrubate you need to maintain the Hygenic man(Shave and good wash after the use) if you dont care for this now you may end up in so many problems as you grow, in your future- Impotency and Infertility, malignancy problems and also if you get married your (?) wife / partner has to suffer for her life long. My advise to you is give a breake for mastrubation, otherwise may (some times) you may end up in developing a Tennis Elbow and nothing serious . If you go to the Dr., he will take a C/S test from the discharge and tell you what is it. In spite of all my explanation to you, still want to emil me your picture please do it, go ahead - Prabhunanbaa@hotmil.com. Take care and all the best

You are 16 years old and should NEVER offer to send a photo of your penis to anyone. If you are concerned make an appointment to see your doctor. If you can come on here and ask the question and offer to send a photo of the "pimple" to a doctor or specialist you can drop your pants for you doctor in person.

O.K.
1. The only person you should be offering to show this to is your Doc. Not an internet "know-it-all"
2. If for some odd reason you came in contact w/an STD you may want to have it checked out. not saying you did but you never know. You can get them by other means than sex...Or it could just be your hormones... at that age kids have breakouts of pimples just about everywhere...
3. if you're still worried and it doesn't go away... check in with your Doc... they'll be happy to help...

It probably is a pimple. The skin on your penis (just like the rest of your skin) is covered in pores, which can become clogged with dirt, oil, etc. To keep your pores unclogged, wash thoroughly with soap and warm water, and always after using lubricants or having sexual contact of any kind. The pimple you have now should clear up in a few days. If not, consult your physician. Remember, WASH REGULARLY!

Pimple / clogged pore from the 'Lube'. Quit squeezing. Treat it as any other pimple. if still have it in 2 weeks, seek medical care. Be cautious of 'staff infection' MRSA look up at the link I have included. no need to e-mail me a pic...

You probably masterbated after touching an unsanitary surface. Have you ever masturbated in a public restroom or like a restroom at work or anything like that.
Bacteria can linger on surfaces if it is a moist environment for sometime, and there is the possibility that you have contracted some kind of disease through masturbating if your hands were not washed.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

It's only a pimple. It is not some kind of outcome from masturbating. Don't make a mountain out of a mole-hill.
