Hello Doctor I have a small lump underneath my penis head which has been there a few months. I am not sure what it is and I haven't had sex with someone for more than a year. However I masturbate often. But sometimes when I masturbate more than once a day the lump feels a bit sore.

Last night I was examining my breasts, and I found a small lump underneath my aerola on my right breast, right beside my nipple. It doesn't hurt to touch. I can sort of move it around and it feels like a hard ball. I have a cold right now if that has anything to do with it, I'm scared it could be something more severe.
