Hello,
I had noticed the other day after a shower that I had small bumps on the shaft of my penis that looked similar to heat bumps. Typically heat bumps go away within a day or two, but these have not gone away and they are starting to increase in size. The bumps are all between 1mm-3mm and have a pinkish color to them. They won't pop, and only hurt when I squeeze them.
The bumps on my stomach are also varied in size from 1mm-3mm and are also painless. However when I tried to pop one thinking it may have been an ingrown hair it did nothing but bleed very rich blood from the bump. All in all I've counted 8 on my lower stomach area and 5 on my penis.
Just to give you some background on my habits, I have only had sex with 2 women in the last 10 years, the most recent was a few months ago, two times and unprotected. I also shave my groinal area regularly, and have plucked several thick hairs from the general area of the bumps found on my penis. Could this be relevant?
I am worried I may have contracted something, but don't want to freak out just yet. With the research I've done I'm fairly certain it is Molluscum Contagiosum but would like to get a second opinion before I spend the money to have myself checked out.
I have photos of the affected areas to give a visual on the situation. Upon zooming you'll notice I've highlighted the affected area. Please help me to find an answer to my problem before I worry myself to death.
