The question
Dear TeenHealthFX,
I hope this dosen't sound weird but a couple days ago my girlfriend gave me a footjob but her toenail kinda scratched the side of my penis and it started bleeding. After a few days there is now a bump. It hurts when I touch it. Do I need to see a doctor? If I do will they tell my parents?
