Tiny red dots on the top of my penis

Posted , 3 users are following.

I’ve had them before after i had oral preformed on me. However my Doctor told me it was probably something weird from strep i had gotten at the same time (still don’t understand that) i was prescribed some herpes antiviral and told to stop taking them after the test came back negative (blood and swab) 

After oral again we made out for a while and then when we ejaculated i went to the bathroom and used some soap that was there (looked to be scented strongly not the normal hand soap) and washed my penis. Now there’s these tiny red dots again... not sure what they are! I will add pictures if someone tell me how to add them please! Please help as i can’t go to the doctor my mom will see that I’ve went and ask questions (I’m not out yet). Thanks!

    You have to be on a computer to add photos. The upload icon (there are 3 others) showing a sun over a mountain is on the far right above where you write. I think you don't need to worry - the red marks will probably go in a week or so. If not, best to go to the doctor again.

    You need to be on a PC or laptop with a large window to add pictures.  If you are, then you should see some extra icons towards the top right of where you type, and the right hand icon (which I think is supposed to look like the sun over hills) will add images.

    The pic I've attached here shows the icons:

    Could just be balanitis.  If it is, then these links may help:

    Washing (with water, no soap) daily, and taking a leak and washing after masturbation or sex will probably help, and you could also try Canesten cream or Daktarin cream.  Loose fitting cotton underwear may help, and some sites recommend washing underwear with non-biological washing powder or liquid.

    That’s the issue it’s not sore. The occasional itch however nothing’s swolen. So i don’t understand what it is.

      Also every cream I’ve looked up it says it’s for vaginal creams.

      Antifungal creams are useful for all sorts of things, including female thrush, balanitis, and athlete's foot.

    Skin is skin, whatever the gender. As long as any cream does not contain hormones, as some do, then they should be OK. I think it's a sign that either women have more problems in the genital area, or is it maybe that men are too silent about theirs?

      What i have doesn’t look like the pictures I’ve look at balanitis. Or anything I’ve googled really. Which is troubling and frustrating
