What Could Pimple-like Bumps On Frenulum Indicate?
i have just noticed these small white dots, around three or four of them, kind of like pimple looking and very small around my frenulum. im 15 and have not had sex and i just noticed them and i am kind of worried. do i have an std or is it normal? i have masturbated and my girlfriend has touched me there, is this a part of the problem,and why they are there, and can they be treated? i was wondering if they are normal or if i should get them checked out. thank you

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
In short: They are fordyce spots
Explanation: They are visible sebaceous glands(fordyce) which are harmless. They are not related to either masturbation or sex. So, please be cool and enjoy. Good luck. If it is of cosmetic concern you can meet dermatologist.
