Bumps on Penis and Pubic Area, What Is It? (photo)

I have these 2 bumps on my pubic region which I thought was an ingrown hair which now seems infected. It feels as if there is a lump under the skin though. I have a couple cysts on my back and it kind of feels like that. I also have these raised bumps on my penis. I haven't had unprotected sex in many, many years and they just appeared somewhat recently. Are these STD symptoms or something harmless? What is my next step? All help is appreciated. Thanks

Bumps on pubic area and penis

Some of the lesions in the picture look like warts, while others look like molluscum contagiosum, both are superficial skin viruses and can be treated with liquid nitrogen and/or a variety of creams. Best to speak with your dermatologist about the best treatment options for you. Be careful out there. Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre.

Bumps on the penis

As best I can tell from the picture, it looks like you may even have 2 conditions. Some of the lesions look like genital warts but one or two look like molluscum. Both can be considered STDs. I would recommend that you be assessed by a dermatologist. They are relatively easy to treat.
