I've been experiencing this sharp pain right at the tip of my penis for about three days now, and it's really concerning me. Does this sound like something serious, or could it be something that will go away on its own? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice on what might be causing this pain.

-It sounds like you may have a localized issue, possibly an irritation or infection. I'd recommend seeing a doctor for a proper exam to rule out any serious conditions and to get appropriate treatment. In the meantime, avoid any harsh soaps or irritants.

I'm just wondering if drinking a lot of caffeine could cause lipomas or encourage them to grow. I usually have black coffee twice a day. Should I be concerned about this?

Drinking excessive caffeine or black coffee is not directly linked to causing lipomas or helping them grow. Lipomas are benign tumors composed of body fat, and their exact cause is unknown. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise is important. If the lipomas are causing any discomfort or concern, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried because I accidentally poked myself on the face with the sharp end of a blackhead extractor, which felt a lot like a sewing needle. After that, about 12 drops of blood came out. The extractor was new and all I did was rinse it with water before using it. Should I be concerned about getting an infection or any kind of disease from this?

Yes take tetanus shot and get your wound cleaned properly for good healing.
