Hi everyone,

I'm a 16-year-old male. I have a bump on the skin of my penile shaft that has been slowly growing over the past several months.

Details:

Age: 16

Never been sexually active (no vaginal, oral, or anal sex).

No known STIs.

Size: approximately 5–7 mm (around ¾ of a pea).

The lump is movable.

It is mostly painless.

It has normal skin over it most of the time, but recently it has become red after friction (mainly from masturbation). It does not become red on its own.

There is a small chipped/flaky area of skin on top from rubbing, not an ulcer or crater.

It has never drained any white/yellow material or pus.

It has never bled spontaneously (only gets irritated from friction).

No fever, no foul-smelling discharge, no pain while urinating, and no swollen groin lymph nodes that I can feel.

It has now reached the point where it gets in the way during masturbation.

I initially thought it might be a sebaceous (epidermoid) cyst because it has grown slowly and feels movable, but after looking at it more closely I'm not sure.
