Hello doctor, I am a 33-year-old male. For the past 10 days, I find something hard at two places under the skin of my penis. It is very tiny and does not move with moving the skin. There is no visible lump or growth or eruption on the surface of the skin at all. It feels something fixed or stationary under the skin and the size of not more than a small pimple. I remember the same having happened at the same place six months back, which had gone with time. This time it has occurred in the same area and had spread to the nearby areas also. What is it? Kindly advice.
Hello. The lesions you are referring to are glands containing sebum, which are present sparsely over the penile skin. As and when the openings of the ducts are blocked, they feel hard but resolve on their own. You need not worry anything about them as they are benign and self-limiting. However, if you get pain, please get back to me as I need to suggest some investigations in case of pain. Otherwise, you need not worry. Please get back to me if you need more clarification.
