Hi,
If you had unprotected sex it may be a sexually transmitted disease.
Otherwise, it may be due to some fungal infections.
Some topical antifungal ointment may help.
Since you asked Fordyce spots - which develop when skin's pores are clogged with natural oil, called sebum, sweat, dead skin, it can also cause infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
