What Do Red Bumps On The Penis Indicate?

Hi, 50 year old male. In the last 2 weeks Oral sex from new partner, but also a week of water sports that. Penis was kind of sensitive so I looked closely and I have some red (in sunlight) more brown looking in indoor light, bumps on my urethra. There are a few right along the edge and some a few millimeters below the edge . I ve been watching them for nearly a week and almost no change. I really don t think it s herpies as there is no pain and no eruption. They look almost like little blood blisters. The lower or deeper ones aren t that visible unless I stretch the skin and then it is almost like they surface. The ones on top are dry. No pain, itching or burning... Maybe a slight sensitivity but no pain when urnitating. I think this is from abrasion or irritation of the area while wearing wet board shorts for most of a week while surfing but would like some confirmation as I ve seen nothing that looks like this on the internet. Thanks for any guidance...
