I've noticed this tiny hard growth on my foreskin, about the size of a grain of sand. It's not itchy or burning or anything, but I'm a bit worried about what it could be. Any ideas on what this might be or if I should get it checked out?

This could potentially be a condition called Fordyce spots, which are small, raised, pale red, yellow-white, or skin-colored bumps that can appear on the shaft of the penis or the foreskin. They are usually harmless and do not require treatment. However, it is important to have it properly diagnosed by a healthcare provider to rule out any other possible conditions.

View allI'm considering the ED1000 shock wave treatment that my doctor mentioned to help with my condition, but I'm a bit worried about potential side effects. Can you tell me if there are any risks involved? Also, I'm trying to find hospitals in Bangalore where they perform this therapy, and it would be helpful to know the cost. Would appreciate your advice.

I'm 13 and from Pune. I've been in the habit of masturbating daily, sometimes more than once, and now I'm worried because the skin on my penis has been pulled back. It seems like I've kind of circumcised myself due to all the rubbing, and it's freaking me out a bit. It's awkward because I don't know what my parents would think if they saw it. It's really stressing me out that my penis is now without foreskin. What should I do?
-It's understandable to feel upset, but it's important to remember that this is a natural part of growing up and not something to be ashamed of. You might want to talk to a trusted adult, like a doctor or parent, who can help you understand what's happeni
