Red bumps on penis shaft

Hi all, I've been worrying for a long time about these red bumps that keep reappearing on the shaft of my penis.

Whenever I get one, it starts out as a small, shiny red bump with a white top and over the course of a week or two, it swells and gets bigger. It starts to itch a bit, and then goes away. The first two times I saw them were in the exact same place. The third one was on the opposite side of the shaft, itched a great deal, and when it stopped itching, it smoothed out just a little and left a small, dark mark with a white top in its place. Now I'm getting a new one right under the third one.

What the hell are these things? I was tested for blood-born STDs and the tests were all negative, and I just started seeing these bumps after those tests. I'm very puzzled.

I'm pretty sure they tested for all the major diseases. Also, does it matter that the only sexual experience I've ever had was 5-10 seconds of oral sex?

odds are herpes was not part of your std testing. you'll have to call and check.

best thing to do is to be seen the next time you have symptoms and go from there.
