Patient's question:
Duration of illness and persistence: The condition was first noticed two weeks ago, when a sesame-sized lump was found on the outside of the foreskin. After two weeks, the lump became larger, resembling a green bean in size and appearing papillary. It causes pain upon touching.The individual only has a history of masturbation and has no experience with sexual activity.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it could be smegma. Smegma is produced when the secretions of the foreskin fail to be expelled in a timely manner, leading to a large accumulation. It is advisable to avoid various external stimuli, such as hot water washing or violent scratching. Clothing should be soft, and diet should be light. Underwear should not be made of non-absorbent, non-breathable nylon products. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to confirm the diagnosis and then receive targeted treatment.
