Infected hair follicle on penis? i hope thats what it is

On the shaft of my penis where what use to be what appered to be a hair follicle became enlarged and shortly there after turned into what looked and felt like a pimple, after a couple of days it drained and the pain went away, then it turned into a small flat white spot with a red area around it, 2 months later this spot is still there, its non painful and it hasnt gotten any bigger, and it moves with the skin, Im guessing that this is probbably an infected hair follicle, does anyone else have any other speculations as to what this could be?
Of course i have that worry in the back of my mind that it could be cancer, but i know thats highly unlikely.

 

okay, let's hope it is just an infection, but it could also be syphillis.

your best bet is to go get tested.

*hugz*

good luck.

 

i get this problem on my body all the time, not just on the genitals, the sore just wont clear up for months untill on closer inspection you can see the hair inside, sometimes im amazed at how long it has grown, once the hair is out, i usually pull it out with tweezers everything is cleared up with days but until then by god does it hurt! the nearest i could describe what it looks like before the hair is out is a fag burn gone bad

 

Ya this happens. Its just a stubborn ingrown hair.

 

yeah i hope so, the thing is where it was i couldnt really see a hair, but anyone who knows anything about the anatomy of the penis knows that there are many tiny hairs around the shaft and you can see the follicle but not the hair,
I know its not an STD, like i said the fear in the back of my mind is what if it is cancer?
Heh i would go see a doctor, but like so many others i lost my health insurance a while back.
Oh well, thanks for all the info.

 

naw its not cancer. prly just scar tissue and the hair left

 

Yup, what she said

 

You're DOOMED!!!

 

Those are always great.

I save mine and give them out on Halloween. One looked just like JFK, swear to God.

 

lmfao u are the best tool maggot, always make me laugh. as for the matter in hand yer i get those sometime they piss me off ut i think its just a pimple.

 

we have not heard from the original poster so i guess his penis was removed and a sex change was made . she goes by the name of "Wonda" now.

 

lmao!

 

ok guys, thanks for the humorous and informive replys

 

I don't know where you are, but I am sure there is a free clinic in your area that could test you for STDs. Better safe than sorry.

 

I have the same thing. It looks ugly as hell but i don't think it's anything serious. I don't know how to get rid of mine now though because i didn't mess with it and pop it and now the puss or whatever is hardened and deep down in the skin and i can't get it out...I don't want girls seeing this and thinking it's herpes or something!

 

old post jesus christ the original poster had A sex change since.

 

wOW, YOU ARE A FREAK.

 

probably just an ingrown hair

 

are ingrown hairs in the pubic area a common thing?

i shaved it all off about a year ago, and ever since then i've been having what i'm pretty sure are ingrown hairs because like described, it's a pimple that i can pop like one and the puss usually has a hair in it like said

but i've had em like more then once after i shaved like a year ago..
