    Lump on penis
    Hello I am 14 years old and am in the mid stages of puberty. The other day I noticed a small lump on the shaft of my penis. It is located towards the bottom on the underside but a little to the right. I know it isn't part of the penis anatomy because it wasn't there before and isn't connected to the penis. I can lift the skin a little and it seems to be connected to the skin of my penis. If I press on it or pinch it, it slightly hurts. Im not sure what this is and I am pretty worried it could be something bad. I am a virgin so it can't be a STD, so I'm not sure what's going on. Please help me out, any kind of help will be greatly appreciated.

    I know you don't want to hear this...
    BUT... you are going to have to tell your parents and go to the doctor.
    Otherwise you will not know and it may be something serious and you may wait until it's too late, imagine losing your penis...
    What's so hard about taking care of yourself and asking the appropriate person about it. It's that easy. Either that or be silly and don't ask anyone but people here.
    Hey, good luck. I hope it is nothing serious. Maybe just a little cyst.
    Have you been masturbating a lot? It could be irritation from that.

    Meh, I had a cyst on one of my testicals a few weeks ago but its gone now. I went to a doctor for that, but this is my penis so its kind of different haha. I think it might just be a cyst. And um.. yes? I do masturbate... but I do get girls so I'm not its not like THAT kind of masturbation :cool:

    Oh, good, then you aren't scared to go to the doctor.
    (And, there ain't nothing wrong with masturbation!)
    Again, good luck! Hope you are fine.

    I agree with Keenu...
    See your doctor about this... better safe than sorry!
    And masturbation is not bad (nor would it cause anything like what you are describing).
    Good luck!

    Question
    Hey - yea I saw this kids post or whatever I have a question of my own... yea just a couple days ago I noticed a small lump on the very bottom of the underside of my penis - there's no pain, no abnormalities, no anything - just a small lump under the skin. I'm still a little worried about it though - and yes I'm a virgin so that's not an issue. Gimme some reassurance! - PA MP

    I had the same thing very recently(in the same place in fact), and I am around your age (13). It is very likely it is a bug bite, no matter how strange that seems. I suggest stop masturbating (if you do at all) for a week or so, as to not irritate it. My bump did go away after a week or so, though I was fully prepared to inform someone for it. If you feel comfortable doing it this early, tell your Father or Doctor, if you have no other choice, you Mother. Make sure you tell someone though, as it could be a serious health issue. I know multiple people who have had loved ones die because they did not let someone know when an unusual thing happened to their body. (one case was similar to this.. no joke)

    Go and tell someone.. fast. When you say your life is at risk, you mean you have other side effects or are you just scared?

    Hey, id be also. Go and inform your dad or mum and arrange a meeting with a doctor as quickly as possible.

    I agree 100%, hell I know its a funny thing to talk about with your family,and you may feel shy... But im a father and would hope my sons would come too me if they had such a problem.. The best thing you can do is go and seek proper medical advise, Im sure you wanna keep your **** as part of your body... :)

    Don't be hung up at the doc's either, they see ****s all the time so there not going to think anything of seen yours... I know that kids at your age get very shy about there bodys.

    OK. I'm really scared its not as easy as it sounds I have a lump on mine towards the bottom right but on the upper part. Its not as easy to go up to a parent and tell them that and then tell a doctor.

    A suggestion? It may be acne! My husband had a pimple on his penis in his teen years and it hurt. You could wait a few days and see what happens. If it gets worse or stays the same, you really should tell your doctor/parents. Use these few days to prepare yourself to tell someone should you need to.

    I didn't, but mine is starting to get smaller now, about a week later, so that's good. I think it's a cyst
