Red Bumps in Pubic Region Only...What is it and how do I fix it?

by james574, Mar 25, 2008 07:55PM
I have these red bumps that started out looking like ingrown hairs.  They were very scarce initially and I figued they would go down.  I couldn't pop them as the white part was actually hard and if I did manage to get the white part free it bled a little.  So they are not zits.  After about a week I noticed that the red dots spread to the area about an inch below my belly button.  They are not on the penis or on the testicles.  I have attached a picture of what they look like for the majority.  these are the majority of them, just little red spots grouped together.  A bunch in all in about a 3 inch diameter area.  

I shaved my area with an electric razor a couple of days before I noticed them.  There may have been one or two then but I didn't see them, and clearly now there is probably over 40 small red bumps and a handful of ones with white towards the right only.  They do not itch or hurt and don't give out any discharge yet, they just look like a rash or something which obviously shouldn't be there.  Last time I had sex was last October 2007, girl had HPV, and we DID use protection.  She also gave me unprotected oral another time without vaginal sex.  I never gave her oral.

I have tried to apply Vitamin E to the area to decrease them and they seem to have decreased in size but are still there none the less and I think possibly spreading at a slow rate in my public hair above my penis.

Do you know what it is for certain?  Treatment I can try?  A lotion with ingredients to fight it?
