What are these bumps on the shaft? Should I be worried?

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hello, i'm a 37 male currently being treated by the dermatologist for candida and jock itch. 1st symptom was jock itch which ive had for a year and it was not severe. Perhaps they're related but i started with a thin white layer on my penis head and then i started getting small white then red papules on my penis head (6 small bumps near each other but not clustered and touching each other) that were uncomfortable but not itchy which went away after treating with lamisil but one would come back after a couple days of not applying lamisil. I was given sulconozole for both the scrotum itch and papules on the head but it seemed to make itching worse of the scrotum. I took a 2 day break and now i apply it with lotion and the itching has calmed down. Now after on and off treatment for about 3 weeks, these new bumps on my foreskin either just appeared or I've had them but didn't notice them. Is this the same candida/balanitis that I've been treating or fordyce spots or an STI? they dont itch and some seem filled with white fluid or are skin colored.
