swollen lymphnode and weird bumps

I'm 18 years old, heteosexual male living in central Pa. On July 5th i had unprotected oral sex with a female. Around the month of September i had a flu or cold whatever, no rash or prolonged diereah or any for that matter. Shortly after i had one swollen lymph node or what i thought was one. It was swollen and painful. It discharged a puss that was alittle more like liquid but still had a creamy texture. The bump was located in my pubic area roughly and inch above my penis and ever so slighty to the left...or your right i suppose. A month or two later i developed 3 bumps right by each other that resembled mosscollum without the indention in the middle. Two of the bumps dissappeared the larger one turned into what appears to be a freckle its not raised or anything. However one of the smaller bumps became larger its located at the base of the penis more or less on the scrotum and i have two more small bumps resembling the larger one..one of the right and left of my scrotum. They are firm flesh colored painless they may each sometime but nothing unusual. Also the place where the "swollen lymph node" was has left a slight indention...some what like a hole where it used to be. I became sick with the Flu again on March 30th 2010 i only had a fever for about two days but ive been very tired and these bumps im presuming there taste buds have been swollen on the back of my tongue for this month. I've been fatigued but im pretty sure this is due to hours on the internet trying to figure out what i have..Im hoping someone can put my mind at ease or further prepare me for my doctor visit thank you.

smoking causes white hairy tongues. so does drinking.
get a tongue scraper and quit smoking.
cancer is alot more common than aids.

the bumps appear to be moscollum but i was reading a couple of sites and says that moscollum is mainly seen in people with hiv i guess thats what had me worried.
