herpes or cysts ?
Posted: 06-30-08 16:20pm

I'm a 20 year old male. I've been in a monogamous relationship for about a year and a half. about 6-8 months ago i started getting:

pimple like white bumps on the base of my penis

they are pretty small

they seem to be only on hair follicles

they REOCCUR from time to time, lasting about 5 days give or take

they do not turn into lesions

they can be tender but not too severe pain

right now there are about 12 of them

the spot at which they crop up is on the top of my penis where my pubic hair is on the base of my penis. it's a spot that i shave with an electric beard trimming attachment (not the main electric shaver part) and i usually have to go against the grain because the hair lays down sometimes.

it's about time to shave down there again and the bumps beat me to it, they usually show up after i shave but i havent shaved down there in a month give or take.

i'm thinking about going to the doctor but i would also love to hear what you have to say because i can't really afford to be going to the doctor right away, i would love some feedback thanks for listening
