I would like a real response, not a generic answer please
Brief Answer:
We always guide real things.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Multiple diseases have similar symptoms. We ask questions to narrow down the list and guide the best possible measures. Same is the situation in your case. I would have given you 1-2 OTC meds and would have treated the symptoms only BUT my goal is to help you cure the problem.
Hope i have cleared my point. I'll be waiting for the answers to help you reach a definitive conclusion.

what do you think it is, is it a STD or is it a person skin issue?
Brief Answer:
unlikely to be STD
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Without any history it would be difficult to comment but image is suggesting inflammation of hair follicle(folliculitis). Rash of STD usually appears on penis & is slightly different than what the image is showing.

Apply fusidic acid ointment thrice a day for 5-7 days. Hopefully it will resolve. If still persists afterwards then visit hospital & get an appointment for a "Consultant Dermatologist" for evaluation. He might discuss the option of laser treatment as well.
