well thanks anyway pal.. hey if your up for it, 'll sned ya a friend request You truly are a masturbation pro !! alex
If its hard, fairly irregular and just within the skin layer then its most likely going to be a sebaceous cyst, or related cyst (epidermoid, keratinised) which is basically just when a hair follicle blocks and fills with the various secretions that your skin produces (e.g. sebum). There kind of similar to spots but just last longer, and may require removal or just be left to resolve. I'd give it a week-10 days and then go and see your Dr just to get it checked out in case it is something different, and also maybe discus removal (which is usually done by your Dr)
i've had pimples that fit the description. But if it doesn't go away soon, see your doctor. He'll actually praise you for being smart enough to ask about it (most likely). Better safe than sorry.
I agree with the last two posts. I have had the same thing, turned out to be just a blocked folicle thingie. Strange thing is, it will hang out for awhile and then go away for several months, but it always comes back. But it isn't anything to be worried about really. If you are nervous about it though, check with a doctor.
I love takin' a sterilized pin or needle and pokin' around at pimples and blackheads. It's so satisfying... Why? I don't know.
Maybe it is just an engrown hair? Look carefully and if you are still concerned go to the doc and go through check up. Better safe than sorry.
