Hi I've attached a photo- I'm decently concerned as I've never had an STI before. Any advice would be tremendously helpful- thanks!

      Was the sex unprotected? Looks like warts are a possibility here. Only way to confirm that though is at sexual health.

    It doesn't look like herpes .

    At all .

    But I've never seen these type of things happen from a man's point of view ...

    You should definitely get a swab done just in case ..
