small red bumps on penis head and shaft

[pblog123]

i have had unprotected sex recently and not sure if this could be a STD. there are 2 at the head 1 between the shaft area and the head and 2 that arent red on the shaft. when erect the 2 on the head seem to inflame.. i feel no pain and they do not ich or irritate me.. and if i look very close the one between the shaft and head and one on the head seem to maybe have a small white dot in the center. i do masterbate often with vasoline. and they have been there for about 2 weeks. What could this be?

I have many really small pink bumps on the shaft of my penis, not enough to make me scared but enough to worry me, they are slightly darker then my skin, and i had unprotected sex 2 weeks ago, whats going on?

Hello,

Without examination, confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be contact dermatitis,rash due to friction rub, folliculitis, cysts ,molluscum contagiosum(multiple, small, dome-shaped papules, often with a central depression or plug) or genital warts(caused by HPV infection).

Apply warm compresses, Neosporin ointment and calamine lotion and avoid messing with it. You  can take anti-inflammatory pain killers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen. If the lumps persist then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.

I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
