What Causes Red Bumps On Head Of Penis That Hurts During Urination?

Hi. My friend is having a bit of an issue and I would like some assistance. Hes very uncomfortable and I feel awful. I am an LPN, but this issue is puzzling me a bit. He's been breaking out in one or two little red bumps on the head of his penis and he's having pain during urination. He says the urgency hurts worse than the actual urination, but they both are painful. This lead me to believe he has a UTI, but I've never seen a rash or bumps with a UTI before. One of the bumps is bothering me a bit because it looks blister-like, but not quite like the beginning of herpes or warts. I am concerned that a girl he had relations with has given him something. Some help as to what this is would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
