    I guess you are under 36 YOA - these are almost certainly something like Fordyce Spots

    If you happen to be sexually active without protection go get visual and STD tested to make sure

    Dear user,

    I think you may have molluscum contagiosum, a viral STD. Try to see your doctor for confirmation and get tested for other STDs. They don't look like warts or herpes, and unlikely to be folliculitis as there's not much hair at the distal part of the shaft of the penis

    Rgds,

      You can self-medicate for MC if you go to your local drugstore or pharmacist and ask for 5% potassium hydoxide, sometimes sold as Molutrex, etc.
