Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on. There's a small bump the size of a green bean on my penis, and in front of the bump, there's a white dot (the bump is on the base of the penis). When I squeeze it a little, there's no sensation, meaning it doesn't hurt or itch. I'm still a college student. I'm also very careful about hygiene. I only noticed it during a bath, and it's probably been there for about a week.Doctor's answer:
This is a case of folliculitis. Local heat application, povidone-iodine disinfection, and oral metronidazole and roxithromycin treatment are effective. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, maintain a light diet, and drink plenty of water. It is important to have a good lifestyle and dietary habits, which can help with the condition. I suggest that if you have any concerns, you can visit the dermatology department of a hospital to check for sexually transmitted diseases for a definitive diagnosis.
