I have a small lump like growth on the side of my shaft. It is skin colored, painless, and has no discharge. It appeared around four weeks ago and has stayed the same size despite applying warm compress on a daily basis. I got the standard std panel which came back negative. The doctor told me it could be a sabaceous cyst. I am pondering whether I should have it removed through cosmetic surgery (concerned it may leave a surgical scar). Has anyone dealt with this before? Can a cyst/blocked gland go away on its own?

The doctor told me to wait for 6 months to see if it goes away on its own. I do not wish to wait so long.
Either trust your doctor or get a second opinion. Maybe a dermatologist or a cosmetic surgeon? A surgical scar would be the diameter of the lump, and generally those places heal pretty well.
Thank you for your response. I am looking to get a second opinion from a cosmetic surgeon
I don't know how old you are, but I'm well into my 60s and I have lumps and bumps growing all over the place. I see a dermatologist annually and she freezes some stuff off, once cut something off and reassures me that I'm not dying from skin cancer.
I'm in Ontario, but FWIW, it takes about a year to get a referral to a specialist, although you maybe can find a pay-for-service Doc over there.
It sounds like your Doc may not have the expertise to be certain what he's looking at, so a specialist might be worth it.
I had something similar once but it turned out to be a broken penis. I kid you not. It popped up during a bbbj. While the lady was on my side doing a bbbj facing away towards my feet she suddenly stopped & said omg what just happened? I looked at my penis & replied omg! Over a few days it began changing colors. Like a bruise. It rook a couple of weeks to heal & get back to normal. However since you still have it it sounds different than what i had.
If i were you i’d get it removed asap. You just never know. I once knew a guy who had his penis amputated. He told me he had to after being diagnosed with cancer of the penis. I didn’t know there was such a thing. I asked him if it was so e rype ofmskin cancer on the penis & he replied yes. He was pretty demoralized about it. He was quite popular with the women before the problem popped up. He has since passed away.

I'm almost happy to read that men like to terrify each other with dick horror stories too. For every guy with a cancer-dick there's probably ten million with a boring-skin-thing-dick.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I had an appointment with an urologist last week. He told me it could be a sabaecous cyst and it is too small for removal at the moment. Recommended to wait 6 months to a year to see if it changes/grows in size. I will get it checked again in May or June. No hobbying for me till summer I guess

There is no center. Just a small lump like growth on the skin which moves when I stretch or move the skin.
I had bumps on my body as well and same procedure but I surely wouldn’t want her to freeze my dick.
