Thank you for query.The bumps mentioned above on penis may be due to many reasons like STDs,other infections, allergies if any etc.It is always better to take him to doctor for diagnosis and treatment.It is better to have protected intercourse like using condoms if either of them have multiple partners.Good genital hygiene definitely helps in preventing many infections.
