Brief Answer:
HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS OF WARTS.

Detailed Answer:
I have gone through the photograph.
The lesions look very much like warts.
These are generally sexually transmitted and caused by HPV - human papilloma virus.
Have a complete STD screen for yourself and your partner.
A biopsy of the lesions will confirm the diagnosis.
Treatment is usually surgical excision , but then they might recur anytime.
Protected sex is a must.
Take care.

I understand.
Having sex with a female can cause that too.
