Are these HPV warts?

Posted , 2 users are following.

i am 23, and am Circumcised. Now from my understanding based on pictures ive seen on here and online, this area of the shaft is not the same on everybody and looks like its generally bumpy. Im not an expert on skin but the penis just seems like its bumpy on some people. They are super small, and they dont hurt, dont itch, dont burn, dont bleed, they dont do anything. I dont have health insurance until december so I feel like i cant go get them looked at, and i dont want to pay a huge ass fee if it is something bad because i dont have health insurance to cover it. Does anybody know what these are? Plz help ease a fellas mind. imageimageimage

    A bit more information, I was sexually active early September, and have not had sex with anybody else sense. I didn’t notice these before I had sex with this new girl. Besides that point, Nobody else I’ve been with in the past year has said anything to me or reached out, or had any concern about possibly having something, including this girl. Because if it Was some thing, somebody would’ve noticed by now but they havent.

    So for starters, you are circumcised so the skin in the area is never going to be 'normal' compared to an uncircumcised penis.

    To put it simply, if this was a problem issue there would be a whole lot more going on that what is shown in the photos, such as an STD / STI.

    You may have very slight skin irritation going on - try to minimise exposure to soap and stuff like shower gel, make sure to fully dry the area when you wash or take a shower as any moisture left behind can cause skin irritation.

    Also, get yourself some liquid coconut oil and apply a very light coating after you have dried yourself after a shower, 2 or 3 times a week is sufficient.

    I figured that was the case. I just dont understand why it looks like this. This does ease my mind a bit better though. I feel like it looks weird.. i did figure if it was it would look worse. Irs still scary
