The tiny bumps that ring the rim of the penis head (seem to form in organized rows, like a string of pearls) are known as pearly penile papules.
They are harmless flesh-colored or a little lighter, bumps with a smooth dome shape.
Their appearance doesn't have anything with intimate hygiene or sexual transmitted diseases.
You may feel some uncomfortable sensitivity during sex, but, there is no real concern for this.
These bumps tend to appear and disappear on their own through years.
If you are bothered with them because of cosmetic reason, you can be performed a laser therapy.
The pimple looking things on your penile shaft are likely of benign nature.
I guess they are a pinpoint, dome-shaped, yellow, or, flesh colored, bumps, known as Fordyce's spots.
Like small, painless, raised, pale or white spots or bumps 1 to 3 mm in diameter they affect the penile shaft and aren't linked to sexually transmitted diseases.
They are only of cosmetic concern.

Best wishes!

i was with a partner for 18 months and i noticed this tiny lump at the bottom of the shaft, a while ater we split up and went our seperate ways. a couple of months after i got with another girl and had protected sex with her and after a week or so of having sex a few times, the lump turned into a zit or a spot, so i popped it and a few days later back to normal with no problems. then after a following 3 months with the same girl i have another one a little bit higher but came straight up as a spot i have some mild discomfort with this but is now going, does anyone know what this can be caused by?

Hi, my brother has noticed that he has pimples on the shaft of his penis. He said that a few weeks ago he had one, he poped it and it went away, now a few weeks later he has 7, he says that they hurt when he touches them, he has been sexualy active for the past 4 months with the same girl but they are having unprotected sex. Any ideas on what this could be, and if he should be concerned?
Thank-you
