This : This could be razor bumps (pseudofolliculitis), skin tags, warts, molluscum, a scar, or several other possibilities. I think you should probably see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and to discuss treatment options. I hope that helps.

Please don't: Since you have penile scarring from episodes of shaving your genitalia- i would like to encourage you to consider stopping this practice. There isn't a medical reason to shave your penis. Please do not cut your penis any further or place caustic chemicals on it. Please see a dermatologist for care.
