Are these pimple like bumps and red bumps herpes?

I have small red bumps on my inner thigh. They do not itch or burn. Some get big enough where I can pop them and they produce a little firm white head and bleed a good amount. There are a couple of these on my sack and above my penis in my pubic hairs as well. I also have a few pimples around my shaft but they have gone down a lot with heat and washing and now just look like a red area. No itching no pain and no burning. What could it be?

It does not sound like Herpes. HSV-2 especially with the first outbreak is painful, it sounds like you have a rash of some kind. It's difficult to know without looking at it, make an appointment with your doctor. If you are really concerned about it, maybe consider going to an urgent care center. All the best.

Doesn't sound like herpes at all, sounds like ingrown hairs.
