What Do Bumps On The Penis Shaft Indicate?

Hi a little embarrassing but I noticed two bumps on the shaft of my penis one is very small the other is kinda skinny and slender they do not itch or hurt they're just unsightly. I'm a very hairy guy so I thought it was an ingrown hair. I used tweezers to remove surrounding hairs but they won't go away. Any advice?

Hello
I appreciate your concern
This could be due to infection like STI or allergic reaction

I would like further information to help you better
Your age and relevant medical history like diabetes or liver disease
Recent exposure to unprotected sex?

In my opinion you should consult a VD and skin specialist for physical check up and a battery of tests like urine culture, VDRL and blood profile to rule out infection

Meanwhile please follow these guidelines
Have plenty of fluids
Apply antiseptic or antibacterial ointment after cleaning it
Maintain good hygiene
Use condom during sex

Hope this answers your question
Best wishes
