Hi,

If you had unprotected sex we can think of STI caused by other bacterial and viral infection. Non sexually transmitted infection are:
- Acne, Fordyce spots - which develop when skin's pores are clogged with natural oil, called sebum, sweat, dead skin, it can also cause infection.
- Pearly penile papules - small, fleshy bumps that usually develop in gland penis in rows around the head of the penis.
- Skin tag – it is normal, happens in age advances.
- Ingrown hair which is painful can leads to infection, needs medical management.
- Rough masturbation/sex.
- Bullous impetigo- bacterial infection due to bad hygiene or use of public pools, towels.
- Pemphigus – its autoimmune disease can be diagnosed by blood investigation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
