Multiple skin irregularities on penis, very concerned

Hello Doctor,
I was diagnosed with molluscum 1.5 Years ago, since then I have had all molluscum lesions removed.
I had unprotected sex about 3 months ago and noticed a new molluscum lesion 3 days later (after a year with no molluscum outbreaks) but then I had it immediately removed. About a month after that I noticed that the skin on my glans (glands) penis was very white and flakey after masturbation. I went to my GP, got urine test for all bacterial infections (all negative) he recommend antibi ointment for the dryness. It moisturized for a while but dryness came back after a few days. Then about 2 weeks later I noticed a small group of bumps on the left lower rim of my glans (glands) (I am circumsized) and the dry skin spread to the shaft. I switched to moisturizing soap and it seems to help but the skin on the glans (glands) is still somewhat irritated and dry especially after masturbation. The bumps have persisted and when I sit up with clothing on for long periods I can feel slight tingling for a few seconds in the same area but then it goes away. They are sometimes not quite visible and other times plainly visible. They are only on the left side of the glans (glands) so I don

I thin that most likely the mollusca are on your mind, not your penis.  The flaking sounds like irritation, and the bumps are probably normal anatomic variants of the penis.  Keep in mind that the mollusca, while sometimes sexually transmitted, may well haven't been contracted sexually, as they often are in kids.  Besides, once they're gone you don't have a greater chance of getting them back than anybody else.  It's almost certainly not necessary for you to abstain from intercourse.  Please see a doctor as soon as you can so you can learn fro sure what these bumps are.  Then you can forget about them and get on with your life.

Best.

Hi,

I had unprotected sex with several girls, as a result I damaged frenulum breve. It was a little scar which was slightly bleeding, especially after sex. I didn't pay attention at first. However, I managed to take care of it. When the scar healed, it looked perfectly fine, then in a couple of weeks it started to grow and turn to an excrescence of skin. It looked like unneeded piece of skin so I ripped it of, it started to bleed. In the couple of weeks I got it grown back but now I have two of them. Now I am really concerned about this problem, I don't have any problems during sex, it doesn't hurt at all. Merely it looks wrong.

Thank you!
