I noticed something similar in my pubic area slightly above my penis. It's about a quarter of an inch across and red. At first I thought it was a staff infection, but I also thought it could be bed bugs or something like that. When I go to feel around the area it feels like a little ball under the skin. Maybe a lymph node. I'm a virgin btw.

I had the same red bump and i used some acne medicine called oxy and it lowered the appearance but takes a while to go away.

I am a 16year ol male. 2 years ago, I noticed some pimple-like reddish bumps on my penis and I went to consult a doctor. The doctor prescibe me anti-biotics and I consumed. 2 days later, I fell down face flat and the 'pimple' on my penis burst. Pus and some blood were discharged and it stinged at first. But it recovered 1 day later without any scars. the same thing happened again 2 weeks later and I consult the doctor again. He reassured me it's just a sweat gland infection and prescribe me some anti-biotics again. However, I went to burst the 'pimples' this time and it recovered. The pimples are recurring and it recurred every1 month in the first year. However, it showed up less often as the days go by. But now, it came back for the first time after 2 years. I burst it as usual and the spot where is used to be( about the size of a small coin) turned blueish-black (like a bruise) It hurts a little when i presed down gentlely on it. Could anyone tell me what it is? It's kind of freaking me out. Finally, to all who thinks it might be a STD, I am a virgin.

Bumps and pimples in pubic area
by maliy, Dec 22, 2007 05:31PM
Dear Doctors,
About 5 days ago I found a pimple in my bubic area, that hurp and had puss inside. I tried to not touch it. In a couple of days it popped and some puss with blood came out. The pimple/bump did not go away. It swelled up again, and I repopped it, a little blood and puss came out. Afterwards, I found several red bumps in the pubic hair area above my penis. They are red, and some have hair that are starting to grow out of them. Some do not have hair. These bumps are different in size, and it doesn't seem that they all have puss. They do not hurt, burn or itch. It also doesn't look like they will all pop. There are no bumps or pimples on the penis. I had sex last week and this area got wet. There was also a lot of friction and sweat. I also sweat a lot. I'm very worried... Can these be herpes or warts? Or can these be sweat pimples or hair pimples. I currently have a cold sore on my lip. I get those frequently from chapped lips. Can these bumps and pimples occur from sweat or female discharge? Or does it sound like herpes or genitile warts?? Please help ASAP. Thank you very much... P.S. I some time pull my pubic hair out. Its a bad habbit. Can that be also be the cause? Thanks!!!

The pimples you describe do not sound like herpes or warts. They sound like folliculitis which, as you suggest, is an infection of the hair follicles (the little pits that the hairs come out of). They are more common in people who sweat a lot. They usually get better with soap and water and washing with either a washcloth or a loofah sponge.
I do not know if pulling on your pubic hairs out contributes to folliculitis but it is not something that has any benefit to you.
Hope this helps. EWH

oh my god I'm 16 and like four days ago I noticed this bump right above my genitals... and it was red and now it's like bluish and it stings like a b***h when in certain angles o___o i hate this

i have the same thing, but its only a single red bump about 2 inches directly above my penis, it looks like a spider bite of some sort. i first noticed it a few weeks after i had unprotected sex with a girl i work with. it doesnt hurt and its not very big but i have popped it numerous times and the little mother f**cker wont go away. sometimes white puss comes out and other times a little blood. ive had it for almost a year now and im wondering why it wont go away. im not as worried as maybe i should be, because of the fact its not ON my actual penis or scrotum. i havent been checked for STD's since then, but STD's can ONLY affect and be located on your actual penis or scrotum right? some1 please give me some advice. i really dont want to waste my time seeing a doctor if it is nothing to worry about. im also 21 if that matter any.
