What Causes Bumps On My Penis Shaft?
Hai I am 26 sexually active and I use protection. Two days before I noticed small bumps on the shaft end ( starting of the shaft ) of my penis. Two days later it turned black and the skin got peeled off leaving a pink patch. I am really worried could use some help.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
As you had protected sex, STD/HIV are unlikely. Other infection are also unlikely.
You mentioned, bumps healed with peeling and left a pink patch. It could be most likely due to a drug reaction called as Fixed Drug Eruption. If you have exposed to a particular drug, you may likely to get such reaction.
You have to identify the drug and avoid the exposure to this drug in future.
