What Causes Bumps Under The Head Of Penis?

Could be herpes, fungal infection, HPV, etc.
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help.
1. I would first like to ask you if you have a positive history of recent or past sexual intercourse or oral sex? If so, please write back to me with details like:
+Whether or not you knew the woman?
+Whether she was a sex worker or not?
+Can you get in touch with this woman if the need arises?
2. And if you have no history of sexual intercourse, then please answer the following questions:
+Is it hot (temperature) where you live?
+Do you sweat in the genital region often?
+How often do you shower?
+How would you rate your personal hygiene on a scale from 0 to 5; 0 being extremely poor and 5 being paranoid about hygiene
+Do you masturbate often?
+Do you leave the region wet often?
For now, I hope you understand that your presentation does not match any diagnosis accurately, but there are a few conditions that can present with such symptoms sometimes. Let me list them out for you:
+Herpes
+Yeast or fungal infection
+Genital warts (usually associated with human papilloma virus)
+Friction injuries
There is no sure way to determine the cause without investigations sir. I would thus recommend an STD-panel to be conducted at the earliest, and to avoid all forms of sexual contact until then. I look forward to hearing from you in order to help you further.
Best wishes.


Also, they are not usually as red as they are in the picture. They are white and don't itch or cause any pain. They have kind of a rough texture to them as well.
Penile candidiasis (yeast/fungal infection)
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again sir.
Thank you so much for your response.
It seems like you have a fungal/yeast infection. Here is my advise:
+Get clotrimazole cream and apply over the clean and dry region twice daily for the next 20 days (the cream is available over-the-counter, so you should be able to get your hands on it easily)
+Do not leave the region wet
+Avoid masturbation for the next 14 days
+Change your inner wear twice daily
+Dry the region after using the toilet
+Dry properly after a shower
+Make sure you shower everyday
I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.
