Penis bumps.
by MBH8280, Oct 17, 2006 12:00AM
I have these little bumps on my penis. I'm a 26 year old male. They look almost like small pimples, and sometimes a white "threadish" material, almost like like a thick, white hair comes out. I pull it out, and when I feel the bump it feels as if some of the white studd id still in there. I looked for pictures onlince but couldn't find any that matched. Sometimes they are more visibal than other times. It seems like they are more visibal the more I masturbate. But in periods of low masturbation, they can barely be seen. They also don't look like any STD that i've ever seen. A while back an ex gielfriend of mine said she had HPV. Could that be what I have? From what I have researched, the HPV she had, if I had it, it would be gone in a year, but i've had these bumps for a few years now. Please, any information you could give me would greatly help. Thank you.
