Hi Nurse I have a small painless lump near the beginning of my penis. Could this be an STI?

Unfortunately we cannot diagnose online. The only way to know for sure if this bump is cause by an STI is to have it checked by a health care provider. They will be able to take a full health history from you and do any testing that may be needed.

You can use our “Find a clinic” function to locate a clinic in your area.
