Is this herpes?

I've had these random bumps pop up on my penis for about 2 months now. I'm afraid to go to the doctor because I'm scared its herpes. But of course I'm going to go before I have sex again. I haven't had sex since February of this year (2016). I didn't start noticing these random bumps until 2 months ago so I don't think it was from sex but that's the only explanation I can think of. The bumps grow a little when scratched. No puss, blood, discharge or burning when I urinate.

    Either way I promise it's OK! Ive had HSV-2 for 10 years now. I've had a couple boyfriends and now a fiancé whom which I was honest with all. Go get tested and keep in mind...1 out of 4 have it. It's as common as a cold. No Shame! Pffft...the whole damn population will at sometime be exposed to it. It's totally big deal so chin up! ??
