A pimple-like bump on the penis can be caused by several things, such as:
Ingrown hair (if you shave)
Blocked pores (like regular pimples)
Friction or irritation from clothing or sweating
Fordyce spots (harmless white or yellow bumps)
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) (if you've had unprotected sex)
What You Can Do:
Keep the area clean (wash gently with warm water and mild soap).
Avoid squeezing it (this can cause infection).
Wear loose, breathable underwear to reduce irritation.
Apply a warm compress if it's painful.
If the pimple gets bigger, fills with pus, lasts more than 2 weeks, or comes with other symptoms (like burning, itching, or discharge), see a doctor.
