Pimples on penis (that itch and hurt) - Multiplying every day

Posted , 9 users are following.

5 days ago, I noticed 2 little lumps on my penis skin. I scratched it, and it create a little wound (crater), like a little vulcan.

The other day, I noticed 6 or more. The other day, 15 or more. Today I lost the count, and it's getting worse.

I already did a consultation with a urologist, but he couldn't identify what it is. It itchy a lot, but if i scratch it, I turns in a would and hurts even more!

Please help!

    Sorry, but I have no idea what that is either.  What advice or medication has the urologist suggested?

    Do you have any other symptoms anywhere else on your body, or any other health conditions?  Are you sexually active?

      The advice was to me consult a dermatologist the fastest I can, and keep the area clean. No specific medication was recommended.

      I have psoriasis, but it was always seasonal and very mild. I'm sexually active, but only with my wife. She doesn't have anything in her skin.

      And forgot to mention that my inguinal lymph nodes are swollen

    If the urologist doesn't recognise it maybe a general doctor would. It looks more like an insect has laid its eggs in your skin!

      I recently had contact with a dog. The dog was relatively clean, and did not presented any skin conditions (like scabies). This contact happen 2 weeks ago. Other than that, I can't see any possible source of contamination. I always was very hygienic, and work as a computer programmer, so it isn't something related to a contaminated work environment...

    Not much help but the white pimples look similar to mine but they've not created craters like yours and are not itchy.

    Did you see a dermatologist?  Are the lumps still there?

      The lumps has gone. The skin healed itself now.

      I saw the dermatologist and he thinks that it can be genial herpes. I really didn't have any contact with anyone else besides my wife, and she has no injuries in her skin. Anyway, I did a blood test (HSV 1 and 2) and now I'm waiting the results...
