zit like bump on penis and small red dots in pubic area

im verry worried about this.. im a 18 year old male, the last time i had sex was around 2 weeks ago it was protected about two weeks prior we has unprotected sex for like 2seconds then i put a condom on. this girl was a virgin.. it was our second and third time.i dont know if it had anything to do with this... i never noticed anything at all untill yesterday i got out of the shower and noticed i had a small bump that looked like a zit, mid shaft of my penis.. well i searched around for an hour or two on the internet and from what i read it seems to be a zit. (i have acne pretty bad on my face) well the day before i noticed it i went on a date with a girl and she put her hand down my pants in the movie and played around... later that nigh i masterbated and i kinda rubbed my blanket on my penis cause its soft.. also my dog sleeps on my bed. wether that matters or not idk... so do you think its from this girl putting her hand on it or something my dog brought in? i wasnt worried at all till i noticed little red bumps on my pubic area . but idk if they were there before,,, im really scared... now the zit like thing has gotten quite large and has a big white head... my pubes have always itched since the first couple times i tried shaving, now i just trim every once in a while  ihavent shaved all the way in atleast 2 months. another thing is the fly on my boxers i wore that night sucks bad and i woke up with it hangin out of the fly... maybe a spider bite? PLEASE HELP ME!

call them to see what your local options are. not all health departments have clinics.

I removed your other post since it was already asked here.  I've also asked the medhelp mods to help you organize your accounts so you don't have more than 1.

we can't help you any further with this. you need to be seen and get a proper work up done. you don't know what is going on so you can't just start throwing anything at it to see if it works.

also never shave when you have a rash. it's the worst thing you can do!

as for the new girl you are interested in, why not be honest with her that you are attracted to her but aren't interested in pursuing a sexual relationship at this point because not enough time has passed since the last time you had sex to test and properly protect her?  That will impress her a  heck of a lot more than trying to avoid things because you are too scared to be seen and find out what is going on :)  women like it when men are honest - trust me on that one!!

Sorry I forgot my password for the old account so I made a new one....so the zit thing on the shaft went away in a few days but the things in the pubic area are still here. they havent changed much sense i first posted. every once and a while some will have a white head. they mostly just stay pinkish but can get red. the more i read on it the more it seems like a fungus. im to scared to tell my mom or go to the doctor about it... is there anything i can try? like anti fungal cream from walmart or something? also, should i try andshave this area or just leave it be? they stick uo off the skin pretty good ive got a girl i wanna date but i dont even wanna be around her cause its depressing me. please help.

neither of those conditions are particularly worrisome but they do need to be dealt with properly.

you shouldn't pop this.

this could be a fungal infection or a bacterial skin infection. You'll need to be seen to find out what is going on.

your local health department is a good resource. Give them a call or look them up online and see what your  local no cost/low cost options are to be seen.

Sometimes a zit is just a zit.  Be seen by your provider for a proper work up.  

This could be anything.  The risk you have from HSV was fro the sexual encounter.  Nothing else is of concern.
