A few small red dots on penis

I recently spent a weekend waterskiing and living in my swim trunks.  The first night back, I noticed 3-4 very small rash type spots near the urethra on the head of my penis.  These were a few rash-like spots with the biggest about 1mm in diameter. One of them looked more like a red pin-*****, as if the surface had been nicked.  After 3 days, the spots went away.  I had no pain, swelling, etc., and they didn't develop into lesions or blisters.  Still, I worried that this was something viral rather than the bacteria in the lake.    

I was diagnosed with HPV about a year ago, and from a recent reccurrence had a wart removed several weeks ago.  This area is on a different part of my penis than the rash, an inch or so from the head.  My partner is aware of my HPV and its risks, and performed unprotected oral sex--while the wart had been removed a few weeks ago by freezing, the skin was still a bit tender (not broken, but a little red still).  If I was infected with herpes via the tender area where the wart had been, would the dots, or something more serious, have occurred there?

Anyway, I will probably be seeing my regular physician for a follow-up in about a month and will get tested then for herpes as  a routine matter. And I guess this worry means that I'll probably be using condoms even for oral sex.

I guess you'll need to see a doctor to be sure, but these spots don't sound like anything infectious to me.  They sound more like blocked pores from sweat retention.  As for HPV, that does indeed sound like something different from these spots.  Before you draw any conclusions, get yourself checked out.

Best.

I have some red spots on my penis. I am uncircumcised and I wanted to know if the blemishes can come from that. Can you tell me what STD's can cause these red marks on the head of my penis?
