I have a lump on the side of my penis that has changed from a hard bump to a flat white spot over the past three months. I have not had unprotected sex, but a condom may have broken. It was initially itchy but now there's no discomfort. What could this be, and is there anything I can do to help it heal?

I visited an ENT clinic today. The doctor found a lesion in my right ear canal that looked like a large white triangle on the screen. The doctor said it was a bony growth and asked me to follow up in three months. Could he be wrong? Could it actually be cancer? How did he know it was a bony growth without biopsying it?

My son has swollen ankles after a 72-hour bus ride from NC to CA. He had sprained his ankle before the trip, but now both ankles are swollen. What should he do for it?

I had breast reconstruction surgery on March 10th and have a small black pinhole on my scar line that is draining a little bit of clear fluid. The pinhole is on the side that had radiation. The doctor doesn't think it will heal and suggests additional surgery with smaller implants. I don't understand why such a small issue won't heal and why I need more surgery. My medical history includes breast cancer, double mastectomy with expanders, radiation, and a previous surgery where I had to go with smaller implants due to slow healing from radiation.

I've noticed a very slight dull ache in my lower pelvic region that started a week ago. I think it might be due to having intercourse after a period of inactivity. Could this be due to soreness from resuming sexual activity more frequently?
