Red Itchy Bumps On The Head Of Penis, STD Tests Negative. Could It Be Winter Itch ?

Hi, two days ago I developed red bumps on the head of my penis . They are itchy, look like a rash/ acne . I noticed last year around this time I had similar symptoms, but went away once the temputure was warmer. I ve gotten tested for stds twice, and both results were negative. Is there any way to get rid of it and find out what it is? I have sensitive skin , could it be the winter itch?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your description. As you had checked for the presence ofany STD and the result was negative, then we can rule out STD. Then the small red pustules should be real pustules which normally appears on sensitive skin during winter season. Just watch out whether it spreads into other parts. If it does, you should consult a dermatologist for expert advice.

For the time being, you can wash your private area with mild soap and apply some skin nourisher creams and keep the area airy for some time. Can also use lacto calamine lotion. Wait for two three days and the blisters should subside.

I hope I am able to answer your question. Available for further assistance.
