Are you sure no STD?: Since you know it's not an STD, he must have been examined by a health professional. What was her or his diagnosis? If not examined, maybe still an STD. Two of the most common causes of painless genital bumps are warts and molluscum contagiosium, both of which are STDs. Otherwise maybe sebaceous cysts; prominent sebaceous glands ("Fordyce spots"); skin tags; etc. Sex is safe with any of these.

I have cauliflower looking bumps on my penis. When I looked it up, it said I had an std. I never had sex before and I am confused on what this is. It does not hurt or bleed and it never has. I never engaged in any sexual activity besides masturbation?
