Any idea what this can be??

About 6 months ago i noticed a little red bump on the tip of my penis. It looks like a small pimple and if i squeeze it this clear fluid that is really sticky comes out. Now at the same time my penis would itch a little. After a couple months it didnt dissapear but didnt itch so i didnt worry about it. My doctor did all the tests for STDs and everything came back good. He told me not to worry about it. Now its starting to bother me again and im starting to get worried.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Any idea what this can be??

Sorry I'm pretty stumped too. If you've been checked out fully for herpes etc it sounds like it must actually be a pimple that keeps coming back but I've got no real idea. Are we talking about on, or near, the glans or on the outside of the foreskin?

its not on the foreskin, its rigt on the edge of the tip, where the opening is.
and ive noticed theres another small one on the other side of it.
looks like im heading to the doctor again, but this is starting to get to me.

Re: Any idea what this can be??

What type of test did your doctor do? If he hasn't swabbed the sore, then get him to swab it. The sore needs to be moist for a successful swab. Blood tests can give a false negative for herpes and depends on the type of blood test they do in the first place. A lot of doctors will look at a sore and simply dismiss it as not being herpes. You have no idea how many people have been told by doctors to ignore something which in the end turns out to be herpes.

I'm not trying to scare you, but they are the facts.

Re: Any idea what this can be??

Herpes comes in so many forms and appearances. It's not as black/white as people think. I don't know what else it could be, but if it's definitely not herpes, then it must be something else or must be due to something.

Likely a fungus you picked up somewhere. Before going to a urologist, get a small tube of lamasil and apply twice a day. If you don't get relief within 2 weeks, make an appt with a urologist.
