What Causes Reddish Bumps On Penis?

Hi i have a concern about my man hood, about 6 month ago a had a few red raised bumps on my shaft, none of which hurt or turned into blisters like herpes indicates. I never really seemed to have any of the symptoms. Ive had one sex partner for over a year. And just a couple days a go i got one single bump which had some puss, ive tried to leave it alone its just really bothered me. Honestly thats all thats been on my mind. Im hoping maybe these couple mishaps are just a reaction of some sort or maybe just pimples?? Im terrified to get check because of the possibilities. But maybe you can give me some comfort and ease off some of thw worry. Thanks a lot

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Genital herpes usually presented as small blistering rash with associated burning or pain sensation. In absence of such characteristics it can be just bacterial infection.lt is better to show your GP or dermatologist to rule out this. For genital herpes i treat with anti viral medications like famcyclovir.I also advise local application of antiviral ointments or creams like acyclovir. Burning sensation if there can be relieved by ice water application. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further queries.
