Im 19 years old. I lift weights. Good physical condition... except the condition ive noticed that makes me faint at my stomach... Ive noticed small skin-colored bumps that have shown up after razor-shaving using only water, on shaft and pubic base.... I've also been having unprotected sex with 2 girls at the time..The bumps have been around over 2 months now. They are located on the pubic base and the shaft...(sides, underside). They are about the size of an pin-head, and raise upwards.. No pain, No Iritation, or discomfort.... they are hard at touch, and rough projections. I thought they were just hair follicles that grew back abnormal from shaving with only water...... But they still remain.... I think they are spreading very slow... I dont know. Desperate to know if these bumps have any discharge or pimple like symptoms, i squeezed and twisted one of the bump's tissue off.... It bled little. the under the bump surface was a tiny "white-hard-thread" sticking out...

have u tried using a better razor, and/or shaving cream? i sort of had the same problem and it was from using 2 cheap of razors.EDIT: BTW welcome to a2a!
-
They could be Sebaceous (I know i spelt that wrong, wait for Inel opr sdp to spell it right) glands, or long standing razor burn.Also, ALWAYS use a sharp razor and shaving cream when shaving in such a sensitive area, ALWAYS.
-
I just been trimming with scissors...the bumps dont appear to grow any bigger...they may appear to grow in different spots and disapear...There not really all clustered up, but they are close and spreaded out...
-
Also, when i removed one of the spots my self...It re-grew it self over time......I wondered if this was a STD. or razorburns could leave scars....but i dont get how its spreading..
-
Check out the ictures in the Male Anatomy thread.

Sebaceous glands
-
I just dont get it........
If it is..Sebaceous glands ...
how do you rid of it... -
They do sound like sebaceous glands to me. You have these all over your body - they produce sebum, a white gunk that is the skin's natural moisturiser. On most of your body they are buried in the skin, but the skin on the genitalia is thinner, and when the sebaceous glands enlarge in puberty as they do, they become noticeable there. You're noticing them now because you're uncovering the area and paying more attention to it.You don't get rid of them - they are perfectly normal.
-
What about when i removed one of the spots my self....it bled little, and there was a hard white thread underneith...??then in like a week, the bump rehealed in its previous form??it doesnt seem warty...but they're rough textured...
-
It's hard to know. The sebum in sebaceous glands can dry out to form a hard white plug - a whitehead.
-
some of the bumps are fingerlike projections....otheres... dome like....you can see them poking out from side views of my shaft..Would tooth paste help rid these areas??
-
We should consider the possibility of molluscum. Molluscum lesions are often dome-shaped, typically with an indentation in the middle (example), and they have a white waxy core which is in fact highly contagious. Unlike sebaceous glands, molluscum can spread; and they can be transmitted sexually. The lesions are normally considerably bigger than a pinhead, but the Wikipedia article I linked does say they can be as small as 1 mm across.

looks like it... there very small dome like bumps... but hard texture...
-
waxy and pinkish...
-
I think at this stage you should show them to a doctor and ask about molluscum.
