EDIT:
never mind found out what it was on the link you sent
These are the perennially-worried-about sebaceous glands. You have these glands all over your body. Generally you will see then on the penis shaft and the scrotum. They produce sebum, which is a white greasy gunk that acts as a natural moisturiser for the skin, keeping it supple. They mostly discharge into hair follicles, and are usually buried under the skin so you can't see them, even when they get bigger, as they do, during puberty. However, the skin on the genitalia is thinner, and so they often become visible there at puberty, and people worry unnecessarily. They are normal.
Sebaceous glands on shaft -
Did you check out the pic of sebaceous glands on that page???
-
yeah i thought well its not Pearly Penile Papules so ill click every other link and see if thats it and it was so thank you for your help

What if the bumps look like the PPP in the pic on this website, but are not around the head, but kinda under it inside the foreskin (does that make any sense?)? Can they be passed through oral sex?
Note: didn't want to start a new thread for a question that is simialr to an existing one. :smile:

It's not PPP. They are Fordyce spots.
PPP, Fordyce spots and Sebaceous glands are not diseases. You don't get them from someone, nor can you pass it on to anyone.
-
Could be, but they still look different from the picture of them. Like, in the picture of Fordyce Spots on this forum, they are pink and can be seen from the outside of the foreskin, and my boyfriend's are white and are actually on the inner side of it, like, inside the fold, right next to the head, you know? Would that still be OK?
-
The spots on the inner forskin are indeed Fordyce spots. You are being confused because the picture is of the inner forskin however it is fully retracted.

pearly penile papules grown around the head of the penis head. They are like white dots that grow in rows. Anything on the shaft or balls are probably fordyce spots or sebacious prominence. You should get checked out by a doctor just to be sure.
