Question:
Well this is kinda odd but i thought id ask. I dont have much problem with pimples and what not but generally when u pop a pimple u get the white head out etc. The other day when i was taking a piss i felt a little like bump on my penis.. i was like wtf and me being curious i looked and squeezed it and like a whitehead came out. since then the "pimple" got bigger and irritated? doesnt affect me in any way just if i touch it, it kind hurts. is this something that happens often? cuz its the first it has happend to me id never think u could get a pimple there... i take showers daily and make sure to wash my genitals very good. ne help to fix this would help thanks.

It's entirely possible that it was just a pimple. Those do happen on both the male and female genitalia. After all, it's skin too! However, if the bump is still there, you should get in to a doctor to get it checked out. There are free or low cost clinics all around the nation if you do not have health insurance. Thanks for writing in. Patrica Fawver, Ph.D.
