See a dermatologist about yeast infections, or HPV, or Fordyces condition (which is not contagious)

Yes, you should see a doctor, not because it's serious and contagious, but because it almost certainly isn't, and only way you're going to know that for sure is to have a skin doctor take a look.  Nothing to be embarrassed about.  Lots of people have bumps on the penis like the ones you describe, so go and find out if yours are normal too.

Take care.
