See your doctor: The only way to know for sure is to be examined and tested for STDs. You should do this as soon as possible and refrain from intercourse until you know for sure and any infections have been treated. Good luck.

Question 2

Other things: It can be genital warts, molluscum contagiousum, pearly penile papules. infection of the hair follicules. You need to see a doctor in person.

Question 3

today i found one small, red, bump on my penis shaft with a hair growing out of it. painful only when popped. no itch and there was clear puss.

Accepted Answer

See doc: It sounds like it is an infected lesions. I strongly recommend seeing a doc before it gets worse and resist the temptation to pop it.

Question 4

i have small red bumps on my penis. they are mostly concentrated on the head, but there are some along the shaft. they are very itchy. what is this?

Accepted Answer

Be seen: They could be many things.  Be seen for an exam and diagnosis.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Get checked : It hard to say by description . Best to be on the safe side.. get checked by doctor for possible STD.

Question 6

ive had 3 small red bumps on my penis frenulum directly below the head. my gf went to a gynecologist and everything looked normal.  still a chancestd?

Accepted Answer

Go to doc: There are many 5hings that can cause bumps such as these-both STDs and non STDs and without looking at these and getting a much more detailed history difficult to speculate.

Question 7

hello, i've been finding small red bumps on my penis. i'm not sure if it's a std or i'm just assuming the worst first. i've only had sex once and we were both virgin's at the time. i didn't use a condom. now i also masturbate alot.

Accepted Answer

Probably not STD: The large majority of genital skin problems are not STD. There is a book named Genital Dermatology Atlas. As that title implies, it is filled with photos and descriptions of skin problems in the genital area. It's 300 pages long, and STDs are covered in only 15 of those pages. And it sounds like you're not at risk for STDs anyway. See a doctor, but until then don't worry about STDs.

Question 8

i have a small, dry, red bump on my penis. i masturbate about once a day but have never had sex?

Accepted Answer

Get it checked: Masturbation is normal &amp; healthy at your age. Lump unlikely related to this. However, best to get the lump checked by urologist or your Dr. it it's bothering you. Almost certainly benign, but do you you want to live with it forever?

Question 9

recently noticed small red bump on shaft of penis two weeks ago. it has since spread and now at 15 or so red bumps. bumps are on shaft, scrotum, and pubic area with most being on shaft.no itch or pain?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Your symptoms are not normal. You might have an infection or other problem. Please see a doctor for an examination.

Question 10

what do small red painful bumps on a penis mean?

Accepted Answer

Penis bumps: Penis bumps can be many things. Some STDs, some not. Only general advice can be given without a photo or physical exam. Top 2 photos are non-STDs: Fordyce spots (sebum which can be extricated by M.D. or left alone), Infected hair follicle (plucked and kept clean). Bottom 2 photos are STDs (HPV and Molluscum) to be evaluated by your MD so s/he can rule out other STDs and council you for prevention.
