A member asked:
So i got these bumps at the base of the shaft of my penis, they're reddish, and they don't ooze puss, but it's there. i am not very sexually active...

Dermatologist: Red bumps on the penis could be due to herpes which usually feels irritated. If they're itchy an allergic reaction to something that came in contact with the area is possible. See a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment if the lesions persist.
