Hello,

The red blister like spots on the penis head may have formed scabs. You are not active since the last 3 months. Red blisters on the head commonly are caused due to either herpes or syphilis. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a Urologist and get STD tests done.

Take care of your hygiene. Do not let your clothes rub against it. Wear soft cotton clothes. Keep your private area dry and clean. You can apply ointment Acyclovir on the area affected. It will give relief. If STD is detected, you will be treated with antibiotics and antivirals.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
