Small bumps on upper/inner thigh spreading to pubic area

by NickNulty, Mar 20, 2009 11:23AM
24/male. Well I have some tiny redish dots around my upper inner thigh.  They almost look like pimples but not really, and I know they deffinatly are not pimples. But they are red at the base and come up to a clearish skin-color type of bubble. There are about 20ish scattered, all but one or two is only the size of a pen-head, they are small. I figured it was something stupid that would go away, but its been there for a few weeks now and is starting to come up towards my pubic area. (i.e pubic hair and getting close to the base of penis). They dont really itch, they dont really hurt when I touch them, but they do look like hell and the ones in my pubic area are starting to itch. I want to go to a doctor for a quick answer but I have no health insurance. Any info or advice is really helpfull. Thanks guys.

HI,

Are there other symptoms present? Try not to scratch the lesions to prevent secondary infection.  To be able to determine the proper diagnosis, direct clinical examination of the bumps is essential. If you do not have history of allergies, these bumps could be due to an infection, irritation,  dermatitis or possible sexually transmitted disease. It  is highly recommended that you have this evaluated further for proper management.

Take care and keep us posted.
