what are these red bumps with white pus-like tips on the shaft and base of my penis that is like a rash and itches, there are a lot. i'm a virgin.

Accepted Answer

Bumps on penis: This may be nothing more than irritation and common blocked hair cells.

There is a chance they are warts but not likely at your age.

If the rash is in any way panful or the white spots spread please find a way to get to a school nurse or a clinic where you can privately have this evaluated at. Your pediatrician is also likely to know what to do.

Accepted Answer

This : This is quite challenging without a clinical examination.  I would recommend you see a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment options.  Could be many conditions, including folliculitis, eczema (with secondary infection), psoriasis, lichen planus, a drug rash, or other possibilities.  Read more about rashes and other possibilities at the link below.  I hope that helps a little.

Question 10

i have a rash that is located only on my belly. it is a bunch of pimple-like bumps and some of them contain pus. they do not itch or hurt. steroid and anabiotic cream have not helped. 10 days without getting better. not acne. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

: It's time to consult your physician or dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. If the eruption is on only one side of the abdomen, it could be shingles(herpes zoster). Pityriasis rosea is a mild viral infection that can cause a widespread rash of the abdomen and chest.
