About three months ago, my boyfriend got a
small pimple-like bump on the base of his
penis, right above his testicles (but he
was in an accident when he was a child, so
the hairy testicle-skin is partially on
the base of his penis). We both assumed
it was an ingrown hair, that's exactly
what it looked like. He's such a drama
queen (haha), and wouldn't let me apply a
warm cloth & find the hair back when
it was small, so he just left it and let
it get bigger and bigger and more red.
About two months ago, he decides that I
must have given him an std (even though
he's the habitual cheater), and i've been
trying to find any explaination I can
(from sebaceous cysts, to ingrown hairs,
to a male yeast infection), and I had
sufficiently satisfied myself that it
wasn't an std... Until he popped it. It
shot out a lot of white pus, then it bled
for a while (we tried to drain it
completely). Well, stuff came out for
about 12 / 18 hours... I mean, it kept
coming out. That's considered an 'open
sore' right? Like herpes, right? But was
it only oozing because he popped it? I
put neosporin on it and made him sit still
for like 12 hours until it stopped. He
has no burning in his penis, no painful
urination, no other symptoms aside from
this bump...
Also, I thought it could be a yeast
infection because I had one, could I have
given it to him even though he's
circumsized? Could candida bacteria cause
a large bump like that?
I'm so scared because he says he'll tell
his family and mine that I gave it to him!
What could it be???????

I have the same thing right now. I dont
know what it is.. I think its either an
ingrown hair (even though I have not
shaved recently) or a pimple. Sounds
strange.. A pimple on the penis.. Well, I
did the same thing.. i poped it, it was
just like poping a pimple on you chin, or
face. Same pain, until it squirted puss.
after than it went down for awhile.. now
its red and larger again..
I was really concerned because I live with
an individual who has herpers. I am
always paranoid about this. I dont use
the bathroom they use, I wont drink or eat
from anything they touch, I wash my hands
right after I touch anything in the comon
areas of the house (kitchen, doors,
anything they carried).. Still withall of
this i was still concerned.. But both me
and my girlfriend are pretty convinced
that its nothing to to alarmed about..
There never was really an open sore..It
just appeared one day. However I have
been itching all day, but i think thats
from using a new kind of soap in the
shower.
How did this turn out - seeing that its 3
months ago now
