Question 1

tiny little red bumps on the head of penis after washing it with a scented body wash no iching or burning??

Accepted Answer

Ok: there are many little glands in all skin and they will grow red with a bit of irritation.  Everything is fine, don't worry

Question 2

wiped penis with antibacterial house cleaning wipes next day woke up with a bunch of red bumps on head. itch and burn. ?

Accepted Answer

Balanitis?: Probably just chemical balanitis (balanitis = inflammation of penis head), ie irritation from a product not intended for use on skin, especially sensitive skin of the penis, particularly if you are uncircumcised. Keep the area clean -- if uncircumcised, retract foreskin and wash with soap and water a couple times a day. If the problem persists a few more days, see a doctor or clinic.

Question 3

my skin is sensitive and i used a face mask earlier that burned my skin. now i have red bumps on my chest and face and they burn.

Accepted Answer

Allergy: Take some benadryl (diphenhydramine) and apply OTC hydrocortisone cream or ointment.

Question 4

boyfriend has a irritated shaft on the side it has some red bumps and on top of red bumps it looks like a small tiny black head. when pee burns a tad?

Accepted Answer

Must be seen: This could be herpes or a staph infection. Add that to dysuria (which in a male represents Gonorrhea or Chlamydia) it is a definite indication that this man needs a doctor visit today.

Question 5

4-5 months ago i shaved my buttox ever since i've noticed small red bumps no pain no itch is this just razor burn? this just a skin condition?

Accepted Answer

Folliculitis: It may be some of the hairs are ingrown and have not yet been able to properly regroup yet. Warm showers with good irrigation of the area and more time should resolve your problem. If there is any concern for infection, follow up with your doctor.

Question 6

i did a glycolic acid 40% peel.  my skin did not peel, frost, or burn.  the next day i have some red bumps on my face.  is this an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

Not: This is an irritant reaction which is supposed to stimulate collagen formation. The degree of reaction depends on the concentration of the Glycolic acid.

Question 7

skin sensitivity/mild pain/burning started about 10 days ago, on the rim of the armpit, mainly where pec and arm come together. started after a day of hiking.  5 days ago started seeing very small red bumps around armpit crease and on side of pec. ?

Accepted Answer

Contact derm or bite: sounds like related to your outdoor exposure..insect bites or allergic/irritant dermatitis

Question 8

i have 2 tiny red bumps on each thigh. they have a white head. is this herpes? i also get a slight burning feeling in my groin, hips, low back and legs constantly.

Accepted Answer

See Your Doctor: The description and symptoms given do not sound typical for Herpes however more info is needed such as duration, your medical history (recent/past) and more. Additionally, diagnosis of skin lesions is challenging without visual inspection. The causes for "bumps" are quite numerous: infection, allergy, disease-related, and more. Suggest you see your doctor now for proper diagnosis and treatment

Question 9

what are the red bumps on your skin after getting sun  burnt?

Accepted Answer

Edema: Swelling of skin structures from the trauma of the radiation burn. Any trauma to skin (thermal, infectious, chemical or physical), will show similar results depending on degree on injury.

Question 10

what are the little red bumps on my elbow around my burn ?

Accepted Answer

Folliculitis: This may be skin irritation from the burn or folliculitis, but the bumps could also be unrelated to the burn. I would see your dermatologist to have this evaluated.
