It started a couple months ago actually, but lately it's gotten bigger, and the tip turned white and stings when it is touched. It gets in the way of masturbation, and just today a small drop of white fluid came from it. How did I get it? Should I leave it alone and clean it daily, or is it serious? I've never had a pimple or zit so I don't know what they feel like. This has me very worried.
A pimple doesn't hang around for a couple of months; even deep acne, like a boil, heals up after a couple weeks. Anything unusual on your body that doesn't heal needs to be checked by a doctor. If you've been sexually active, it could definitely be a sign of a sexually transmitted disease. If you haven't, it could be anything, though in that case it's less likely to be serious. In any case you should really have it looked at. Things that don't heal, especially after months, definitely call for a visit to the doc.
What do you think about when you masturbate or have sex? Would you tell your significant other if they asked?
