Multiple red bumps. Should i be worried?

Posted , 3 users are following.

i just started to notice these red bumps at the base of my penis. The bumps are not itchy, and i'm not experiencing any other alarming symptoms as of the moment(no pain upon urination, or any unusual discharge). I do have a chesty cough right now though, if that matters. Last sexual activity was receiving a fellatio a ~2 weeks ago. Penetrative sex happened ~1 month ago but i used a condom. Is this STD? Should i be worried?

    Good evening Zach.  You will be fine.  I use to get them when I was younger.  They look like ingrown hairs.  They said not to pop them  Just use warm water and soap.  Good luck  Ken

      Hey kenneth,

      Thanks for the response. I'm a young dude who just started exploring sex, so i'm just really worried. I guess i'll just have to monitor it, and hopefully it disappears soon.

      No problem Zach.  Went through these thing with my 2 sons.  There both hairy and they are careful what they use and if there pants are to tight.  These like take can cause ingrown hair.  Just be careful in your exploring.  All way cover your friend before hand.  Enjoy your life and don't worry  Ken

    Hi Z Two weeks after oral and these pop out, I think going and getting tested would be a very sound way to go, your local sexual health clinic here you go.
