Small Child, Pimple Like Bumps On Penis Foreskin. Due To Grass Allergy?
My 7 year old son has medium sized red pimple like bumps on his penis and forskin. Now we went to the doctor today and they werent there. I noticed after he got out of bath tub tonight. He plays football and is extremely allergic to grass, could this be it? they look like big red pimples to me. This has never happened to him before.

Hi Jenelle,
Thanks for writing in to Healthcare Magic!
I think they are due to allergic tendency or a bite by an insect say an ant.
When he comes after playing watch him again if the problem happen again it is allergy and the child should wear proper thick dress and should not expose there by urination or any such need.
If there is no such thing in following days then may be it was a bite, so do not need to do anything further.
If you have any further query please let me know I would try to answer it for you.
Wish you a great health!

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
It could be allergy or insect bite etc.
A physical examination will help in identifying the diagnosis.
If it is allergy then antihistaminics prescribed by your doctor will be useful.
The allergen if identified should be avoided.
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
