I have what i believe is a definite sebacious prominence, as i know what it looks like and have researched it. It is minor however. My problem is, i had 2 or 3 slightly larger bumps on the upper left side of my penis. looking back, they were so small i should've left them be, but alas i picked and attempted to pop one, numerous times. since then, it's gotten a bit more prominent, and i believe i have a small but noticeable (at least to me) sebaceous cyst under the penis skin. it is freely movable and feels noticeably raised What i am wondering is if picking such a thing can make it permanently bigger, or if it was developing all along, and if there is any way, preferably through topical creams to get rid of it or make it smaller, without surgery. And if i do need surgery in the long run, i would like to know if anyone has had it, and if scarring on the penis is bad. Thanks, and i hope to see some responses soon! :-P P.s. There is absolutely no chance it is an STD.
i have the same problem and everybody says its just something you have to deal with..i dont want to have to deal with it .i want them gone if you figure out any thing let me know pleaseanyone..?
If you dont get all of it out, it will come back. It looks like a little sac fllled with sebacious fluid-a little ecosystem with it's own blood supply. Suffice to say I have 2 new ones, thta wer barely noticeable but playin gwith them in my sleep has cause them to be more prominent. i will probably get removed if it becomes bigger. Best bet is not to manipulate it.
Defintely do not squeeze it becauae at that point it get s to the no turning back point.
A doctor priort this one wanted to freeze it-nt ia good idea--it all has to be removed if you want to get rid of it.
