I have developed small (1mm diameter)
bumps around the urethra of my penis.
They are darker than the surrounding skin
and do not stick up much - if at all.
I've tried placing acetic acid (vinager)
to see if they get whiter, and they do
not.
Could this be hpv?

Hpv will most likely display warts with a
cauliflower like appearance and will be
raised slightly. Also they mainly will
become white when presented with a vinegar
solution. This doesn't mean that you
don't have an std though. There are a few
other std's bacterial and viral that
present bumps on the genital region. It
would be smartest to go to a clinic and
get tested for std's. Some, such as hpv
are not diagnosed without any noticeable
symptoms. So in a way, it is a good thing
that you do have some type of visible
symptom so it can be diagnosed. Best of
luck!
