Hi.
Quick question. Very recently when I've got an erection I find that I have a couple of small lumps just towards the tip of my penis. They're about the 1/4 of the size of a skittle and there is a couple of them. It isnt the skin because the skin moves over them.
Weird thing is that I noticed a small lump the other day in a different place (but just as close to the tip), this seems to have gone and now I have these two. I also have a bit of itching at the tip.
Can anyone shed any light before I think about booking a doctors appointment?
Thank you
Steve

Be 100% sure it is not Fordyce spots, everyone gets them and nobody tells you about them, they are totally harmless but a little freaky.
If your spots look nothing like the picture you might have to go down the clinic, but there are many benign things that happen to your winkie that are NOT STi's, so try not to panic and assume you have syphallis at the first sign of something new popping up
I've not had unprotected sex at all and it isn't fordyce spots. The 1/4 size of a skittle may be the wrong way of describing it, but there is no blood or puss. A spot is probably the wrong way of describing it too because there's no head - its more like a lump that is under the skin. Weird.
