Pinkish Painless Bump On Base Of Penis, Growing. Had Protected Sex. Treatment?

Hi, I am 27 year old. I have had PROTECTED sex six months back. Two months after the sex, I saw a pinkish painless bump at the base of penis. It grew further. But I ignored. Later on, some more small bumps appeared and now their number and size are increasing. Earlier, I had not any kind of pimple/bumps ever. What could it be. How to treat it. I came to know later that the girl had physical relation with some others also.

Urologist 's  Response
Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have multiple Sebaceous cysts on the base of your penis.

The skin in genital area is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.
Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.
Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation to confirm the diagnosis and further treatment.
This is most unlikely related to protected sex that you had six months ago.
