Welcome to HCM.
No need to worry for std because you are sexually inactive.
Bump with white head,reddish suggest infective inflammation.
It occurs due to improper hygiene after sex,excessive perspiration with scratching.
Apply local anti fungal,anti bacterial cream.
Oral amoxy/clavulinic 625 with nsaid will give you cure.
Avoid sex till get complete cure.
Consult your physician for better medical management.
