Small red bumps on penis

[lilwanksta]

Over the past day or two, I have noticed some small red bumps on my penis. Only 3 tiny ones on the head, and a small (not too many bumps) rash-like line of them going from the bottom towards the head. I have recently had unprotected sex with a new partner, last Sunday and Monday (Same partner.). I have never had this problem before, although I currently do have poison oak or poison ivy which I think may be the cause. She has been tested for STD's before and is on birth control. They do not burn in any way, only itch at times I suppose, haven't really noticed too much. Please inform me.

Hi,

Glad the post was of some help to you.

You should also wash all your clothing and bed linen preferable in chlorhexidine andd sun dry it.

Have you tried - calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene .

Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin.

It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for your symptoms and a proper clinical examination.

Let us know if you need any other information and post us on how you are doing.

Regards.

After reading up on Eczema, I have realized that my back is rather irriating in the morning when I wake up. Which could possibly be the cause of dust mites if I'm correct. Which could be the source of the problem. I also seem to have a rash-like set of bumps on back that seemed to be irritated when I woke up this morning,

Thank you very much for your input. To tell you the truth, after thoroughly washing last night, I have awoken to the notice that the condition has lessened thankfully.

It could be eczema, sweat dermatitis, allergic reactions or eczema.

You need to wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites.

For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide).

Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema. Keeping the affected area moistened can promote skin healing and relief of symptoms.

Also, I have had no symptoms that I can recall other than the bumps. No burning while urinating or anything.
