Hi dave,
these wee bumps are completely harmless - my otherhalf had the same thing round about xmas time - we, like you knew there was no chance it was any kind of STD as we have been together for more than 6 years but were totally baffled as to what they could be, so eventually he just went to see the GP and was told it was nothing - just spots! it can be caused by using soap on the area as it tends to strip the skin of moisture and it can also be caused by sweat! my O/H is a chef and works off shore so does minimum of 12 hours per day in windowless oven!! team that with using soap in shower twice a day and thats what you get! :-( he was just given a cream and told to put it on twice a day untill they went and for 72 hours after that and they just vanished!! hope this helps :-)

ah great thanks a lot. any idea what cream it was?
i'm a 4th year resident at a pediatric urology clinic... it looks like possibly a parasite.. nothing to be ashamed about.. if you word outdoors it happens all the time.. most parasites like warm moist places to make thier home... in south texas we call them chiggers.. try putting clear nail polish on them and if it stings and itches then that's the sign that they are suffocating and dying... if that doesn't work go see your primary care physician..
good luck
good luck
thanks for the reply. i've done a bit of googling re: chiggers. the spots/lumps on my penis arent red or sore at all, so dont think its that. they're hard lumps, but not rough like warts, nothing comes out of them if i give them a squeeze either. i'll try the nail polish on them anyway though, worth a try!
still got these, they're exactly the same as the pic still, any ideas?
have you tried looking up mollescum contagiosum?
they don't look exactly like that but they do resemble it.
