I've been experiencing this sharp pain right at the tip of my penis for about three days now, and it's really concerning me. Does this sound like something serious, or could it be something that will go away on its own? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice on what might be causing this pain.

-It sounds like you may have a localized issue, possibly an irritation or infection. I'd recommend seeing a doctor for a proper exam to rule out any serious conditions and to get appropriate treatment. In the meantime, avoid any harsh soaps or irritants.
