What to do if a mosquito bites the penis

Patient's question:

The other night after having sex, I slept naked and in the morning discovered a lump on my penis. When touched, it felt slightly itchy. Because I had been bitten by a lot of mosquitoes that night, I wonder if the lump on my penis could be from a mosquito bite? Could it be infected with something? What can I do?

Doctor's answer:

It could be a mosquito bite. In that case, there's no need to worry. Avoid scratching to prevent skin damage. If the symptoms persist after a few days, it's best to seek medical attention for examination, as it might be caused by an infection. I believe everyone knows that penile tuberculosis can cause significant harm to patients, so it's important to receive treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues, focusing on a light diet and avoiding foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
