What Do Small Bumps On The Penis Indicate?

Ok so I went to the the ER yesterday and talked to a doctor about these bumps I found on my penis after Intercourse with my wife the other week. He told me it could possibly be herpes and of course those arent words you want to hear from a doctor, so I sat there confused for a minute and then told him my symptoms. I was so puzzled because it didnt make sense why it would be herpes even if there were bumps. The bumps weren t painful at all, I had no pain during urination, but earlier on it did sort of itch, then later it seemed like my skin was pealing and now my foreskin is kind of sore and hard to pull back. My wife got examined as well because she got checked a few days prior for STDs but not for Herpes so that has me feeling uneasy, her results were negative for everything else but she said her doctor told her she probably has a bladder infection or possible yeast infection. They gave her some antibiotics but she said she still felt itching and saw white yeast when she urinated, so she thinks her problem is a yest infection. The doctor at the ER gave her some clotrimazole cream for it and examined her vaginal area for signs of my symptoms but to no evail so i was happy. Im still going to get tested on Monday for Herpes but i just wanted another doctors opinion on the situation, and like i said theres no discomfort besides my foreskin and the itching i had earlier along but that no longer exist.

Hi,

* As per my clinical experience, the bumps on penis with foreskin irritation is most likely balanitis induced, which can be following some sort of bacterial or fungal infection transmitted during sexual intercourse.
