which STDs can cause tiny red bumps on the tip of the penis?

RNM

I've been tested repeatedly because I've had painful urination. Everything always came back negative until recently (got diagnosed w/ a urinary tract infection).

I was concerned I also had something viral like HSV but my blood tests and urethral cultures were negative for this (note: I'm still concerned I may have gotten a false negative on this). I had flu like symptoms and some tiny red spots on my penis approx 8 days after getting oral from a new girl.

Assuming an STD is causing my UT infection (maybe chlamydia), what can be causing tiny painless bumps on the head of my penis, as well as abnormally-wrinkled skin on the tip ?

I've taken several antibodies, inc. doxy, cipro and most recently norfloxacin.

The norf. helped alleviate what I think was a full-blown UTI (sore kidneys, very frequent urination)  but the other symptoms still remain (urethritis now just in the tip of my penis, rest of my UT feels OK).

They have checked for WBCs in my urine and didnt find any last time (dont know about this time, got tested the other day).

Did they do a urine test to look for white blood cells in your urine?  Its possible you had NGU, which is urethritis, and you can get that from unprotected oral sex from normal mouth bacteria.

What antibiotics are you on?

rnm ive been doin some research and it is possible that the strep bacteria causes urethritis...i had a test for urinary tract infection and there was no sign of bacteria.  I have been taking antibiotics and the burn is slowly going away but the other symptoms you described are remaining the same... any insight on what I may have?
