Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have a bump on my penis that has been there for two months. It peels off like a scab and it does not hurt. After picking at it, it usually is small for a few days but grows back later. However, it does not look like a wart from what I have seen. I had a wart 10 years ago but it did not look like this. Please help.

Hello doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
The problem is that it keeps healing and then coming back. Here is what it looks like if I do not try to peel it off at all.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I read your query and can understand your concern.
I saw the files you have attached (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). Now mostly, it is in the healing phase. It is time to intervene with the local application of ointment preferably T-Bact (Mupirocin) ointment two to three times a day and keep the area moistened with the cream if possible. Avoid hand masturbation or any kind of friction of penile skin. Do not worry it will heal.
Please follow up if you have any further related queries about it.
Thanks and take care.
