I've had a slow urine flow since childhood and was recently diagnosed with bladder outlet obstruction or high bladder neck. The doctor said surgery isn't suitable for my age right now.

I've had a surgery and circumcision when I was 9, and there's always been this tiny bump near the stitch under the skin of my penis shaft. Lately, it's swollen, and sometimes there's this white fluid coming out. It's painful if I touch it. I'm kind of worried it might be an infection or something.

In some cases, an incision and drainage might be needed if there's an abscess or infected cyst. Please monitor the area closely, and if symptoms worsen, do not hesitate to seek medical attention.
