please help, stds problems
im 16 and im really concerned about stds and me having one. there are these shinny redish bumps on my penis shaft and on the head of my penis. sometimes, theres a little sting or tingle on my penis, doesnt hurt that much.
For one, i had given and recieved oral sex when i was really young (about elementary school) with two guys (im straight, back then i didnt know any better). Neither of them have cold sores, herepes virus 1. since then, i havent been sexually active.
These redish bumps have been on my penis for as long as i can remember and they have never gone away.
im a weird kid, when i shower i never dry off my penis and just put my underwear on. also, ive been using hand soap on my penis and sometimes masterbaited in the shower with the soap. i dont know if this ties into any of this.
i would really appreciate any feedback, thank you

Nick1994, What we say on this forum is meant to help no matter what. We are not here to say stuff in order to sugarcoat it but we are here to assist anyway we can. Oral herpes can be passed on from mother to child however it does not happen all the time. Listen, the only way you can be sure on your end is to get this evaluated by physician to see what's up.
If this concerns a lot, like I have been telling you for a while, go to the doctors, man. Hold off sexual activities until you know what is up with you. You are clearly overanxious. And if you wanna know something else? You say those bumps have been there for a long time. It is not hsv because herpetic bumps or should I say blisters rupture into painful sores and then crust over and heal into new skin. That is why I say it could be a skin irritation but this is just a thought. I am not a physician but an assistance.
by now youre probably getting annoyed by me, but i dont understand how i can not worry. if it wasnt a std and some kind of skin problem, would it be safe to have oral sex with my girlfriend who is 100% clean?
Some stds can be avoidable and some precautions can help deter the infection in a child however, it is all up to genetics to decide. Seriously, Do not dig further into your anxiety. You have nothing to worry about.
ok so if they did find the std in the mother theyd do a procedure so the baby wouldnt acquire it? was this available in the 90's?
Yes, mothers are checked out during labor and pregnancy before, during, and after the event.
thanks a bunch aelly, i cant express my gratitude enough. next doctors visit i will ask him. i come from a small town in CT and hopefully thatd lower the chances. im also relieved that those transformations come rarely. isnt it true that mothers get tested before labor anyways? and could knowing before hand assure the baby doesnt get the std?
