I am a 15 year old male and have had unprotected sexual activities(nothing big). Yesterday, I found this bump about an inch above my penis yesterday that formed basically overnight. I squeezed on it very hard and eventually got it to pop with white puss coming out, and some clear puss/blood afterwards (like a regular pimple). But a few hours later, it got big again like it was before i popped it and it's even more tender than it was before. There is about a 1/2" diameter around it that raises up, but still won't seem to pop. It could be a nerve, like a few other people were saying. Or it could just be the "pimple" healing, but I hope it goes down in a few days regardless...

I think it's all to do with your pubic hair because each hair has oil in them and when the hair becomes clogged these small bumps appear on the skin

I am 16 years old. Recently about 3-5 weeks ago I shaved my pubic area. I am a male. Now a few days back I noticed something growing in my pubic area which had hair growing out of it and I could not see through it. Now yesterday night while I was trying sleep I noticed something in my pubic are which when touched gave a slight pain. I ran and checked it and it was like a swelled spot kind of like which someone would get after a mosquito bite. I did not do anything to that area and started to burst those black zits around hat area. A little puss came out of them. Now today it got me curious and I just had to burst the swelled part so I grabbed it with my fingers and pinched it hard until puss came out and right after it blood came out. I wiped it with a tissue and when I inspected the tissue the black zit was there kind of like it was a cap and small hair (like you get after 3-4 days of shaving) were stuck in it and sort of growing out Of it. Any idea what it could have been?

I am an 18 yr old male seeking some info. I believe i might have something like the same thing going on. I noticed the first bump a week or two after my girlfriend and I started having unprotected sex. It looked like a pimple and it was about an inch or two above the start of my penis. I tried to pop it because it looked like a normal pimple but then just the top came off it looked like just a solid tiny ball of skin. Then the thing started bleeding refusely and took a long second to stop. Then a few more bumps popped up and before much longer (a month or so) there were more. About 50 possibly more of these bumps aroud on my pubic area, on the sides of my penis and even a few closer to the middle of my penis. Also there are between 1-3 of the bumps close by my belly button.
My girlfriend also has a few of the bumps but as far as visual effects i deffinitley have the more serious case. Hers look a little different but the single one she has by her belly button looks very much like mine. My bumps mostly look the same but the ones on my penis look like small blisters. (They do Not ooze anything or have anything in the bumps). I am very concerned with this because i have no idea whats goin on An i have yet to see a doctor. I have had unprotected sex with one other girl and that was 4 yrs ago i showed absolutley no signs of anything before now. My girlfriend has been with multiple partners over the course of a few years and has had unprotected sex with about 4 guys... Could anyone help me out?!

I have the same problem but I have more than one, could it be from shaving?

There are many possibilities.  There is a condition called Mollluscum Contagiousum that results in eruptions that look like bumps under the skin.  This can result from sexual contact.  If you squeeze them they can release a white substance and can grow quite large if unattended.  I was molested when a teenager while unconscious in a hospital by an attendant who was caught doing it in a ward.  I was plagued with this for several years and it took a while to show up. The cure was lancing it or bursting it and applying peroxide to the area revealed when you opened the sore.  Not pleasant.

Those are not red though, and if you have red ones they can be something like syphilis, so do not mess around and get to a doctor.  Dark colored bumps can be genital warts (verucca).  Another thing that can plague you is granuloma inguinal, which also must be identified by a doctor.

If you have an ingrown hair, you will know it in a few days, because the skin is so thin that the hair gets close enough to the surface to become visible.  If it is on your penis, it is different than if in your pubic area of your body itself.  There are enough possibilities with serious consequences for you to have a doctor check it out.  Please do so ASAP.

Sounds like razor burn. I would not worry about it. Just quit shaving.

If you are saying its lymph nodes and then saying you've popped it in the same comment you probably wrong. It's most likely folliculitis as lymph nodes can't e "popped" per se

Hey guys, Ive got the same thing youre all describing. Ive had them for a few weeks, at first i thought it was just razor burn or a sweat pimple or something, as ive had those before and they just went away. I didnt think it was a cause for concern, but today i noticed theyve spread to more of my pubic area and there are a few on my shaft. I looked into the lymph nodes and the molluscus thing, and neither of those seemed to describe exactly what these are.. I also checked into herpes, and thank f**k, it doesnt sound like that either. I plan to call my doctor tomorrow morning and get myself checked out as soon as possible.. Ill be sure to post my findings as soon as I can. Good luck to you guys that still have it.

Sound like a issue with pubic hair. Depending on what you did but could be you yanked the pubic hair fit out or irritated it during sex or ejaculated lol. If it pops up white and you can pop it.

Hello. Please note that you can catch herpes from having oral sex as well. there is a forum on here that a female started who is going through the same thing ( having blisters in the pubic hair area). I strongly suggest you Get tested for herpes. I was going through the same thing having reoccuring blisters in the pubic hair area and recently found out it was HVS-2 (gential herpes) and per my doctor said I must have had it for a while and never knew it. I was devastated because I am not that sexually active and the one thing that hurts the most is not know how long you had it, and who gave it to you at the time. so you can kick their ass!!!! Some people may get sympyoms and some may not and still carry the disease. if you however are experiencing from time to time reoccuring itching, painful redish or white headed blistersor rash that comes and goes from time to time and may last for two to three weeks it is possible that this could be herpes. If you are experience sores or blisters on the outside of your skin such as your eyes, around the mouth, your tongue, inside the mouth etc this is a form of HSV 1 (oral herpes). Please do not speculate. go to the doctor and ask for a herpes test. I hope this helps but its no laugh matter. You need to know what you are really experiencing so you will not spread it to others or other parts of your body if you do not get schooled on it. Good luck and always stay safe.
