I posted this here because it's a sexual area, so I assumed this is the place to ask Smile I noticed recently that I have these small bumps that don't hurt/itch/sting or anything like that, around the the base of my penis (maybe 8 of them). They kind of resemble like if you pop a pimple and it heals but leaves a little scar. If I apply a bit of pressure, a little clear liquid comes out, and the bump itself gets red, but that's about it. I think I noticed one a few months ago, and then more recently I noticed a few more. I am not sexually active at this time, and I've only slept with one person in the past year who I am almost positive did not have any STD's.

Should i be concerned that this is an STD, or is it just an irritation or something? I'd be more worried if I had other symptoms, or if they itched a lot or hurt, but they don't.

Any help would be appreciated.

Blunt and to the point, but most likely accurate. You probably have fordyce's spots Smile They are fairly common, and non-infectious.
