No just no: Ok... chlamyidia and gonnorhea cause URETHRAL infection. they have nothing to infect on the outside of the penis. And.. the mouth has a lot of bacteria. There isn't a good correlation between bacteria and most mouth ulcers.

Pimples: Yes it can. All penile lesions should be checked out by physician.
