Thank you for your reply. I started getting this problem around five to six months before. Initially i started getting this type of boils on my face stomach and later in my leg. I donot had pain and got vanished automatically. Later it started in my pennies. I have sexual relation with some girls during much travel time but always took care of protection. This has started in pennis from past one month. Initially was on the outer skin of the pennis now spreaded inside were has outside has almost vanished. Please find the attached pic for your reference. Is it a major issue like any STD
