Bumps on Penis
by tremonti08, Nov 21, 2008 08:09PM
I had sex and the condom broke. As soon as it broke I immediately pulled out. About a month later, I developed little tiny red bumps on my penis head. The doctor said it did not look like an STD. After awhile, I developed a rash about 3 weeks later and today I noticed two bumps on the shaft of my penis. They are soft, small, and look just like bugbites. They are not painful and just a tad itchy at times. Could it be herpes or warts?

Genital herpes may present with itching or pain, followed by sores that appear a few hours to a few days later. The sores, which may appear on the vagina, penis, scrotum, buttocks, or anus, start out as red bumps that soon turn into red, watery blisters. The sores may open up, ooze fluid or bleed, and then heal within the next 2 to 4 weeks. Flu-like symptoms including fever, headache, and swollen lymph nodes may also be observed. Both HSV-1 and HSV-2 can stay hidden away in the body until the next herpes outbreak, when the virus reactivates itself and the painful sores return.
To make sure that these are not genital herpes, have this evaluated by your doctor.A physical examination is important in reaching a clinical dianosis. You can have the lesions cultured or have a blood test for antibodies of the herpes simplex virus.
Take care and regards.
