Would you turn down someone who makes you feel like a million bucks because of bumps? Probably not.Ĭonfidence is the key to allure and attraction. Yet we know it is the bold suitor who succeeds in most romantic situations. We all want to be attractive to others and we all fear rejection, which can tempt us to hold back in significant circumstances. All that happens even before we get our pants off and start worrying about the bumps on our dicks! It distracts us from the thrill of our sexual encounters and tempts us to doubt our desirability as romantic or sexual partners. We have been so sold on our culture’s impossible standards of beauty that a scarce few of us believe we measure up, leaving most of us to fumble about with other imperfect specimens. What a wasted opportunity! Oh, I understand it, and I think it’s sad. You mention, for instance, that you’ve noticed similar bumps to yours on other men, yet you didn’t speak of them.

Once you have determined that you are healthy, consider the ripple effect this worry may have on you. We must each be responsible for the body we own and care for it properly. Given our poor record of sex education and our embarrassment about discussing sexual topics, we have a mix that guarantees a society confused and silenced about physiology. Still, some of those oddities signal disease and must be attended to medically. Human bodies have enormous variations, all within normal range. It makes good sense, too, to arrive at the medical office somewhat informed and prepared with questions. It is always a good idea to check with your care provider if something happens to your body that mystifies and concerns you. So you see, there are a number of reasons you could worry, but most of them don’t require it. Still, if it occurs more than one time, or if you find blood in your urine as well, have your doctor assess the situation. Frightening though it can be, it is very rarely associated with anything serious. Sometimes rough sex can break little blood vessels that bleed into the semen. We don’t know exactly what causes it, though it seems to result from inflammation of the urethra, prostate, and/or seminal vesicles. It tends to occur between the ages of 15 and 75, usually in the late 30s. In other words, it happens out of the blue.

These are more serious and must be assessed by your doctor and treated medically.Īs for the blood in your semen (hematospermia), most men report no previous genitourinary symptoms.

Papules themselves can be divided into types, the most common being hair follicles and sebaceous (sweat) glands, pearly penile papules, and Fordyce spots.īut odd little growths on your genitals could also be ulcers, plaques, or warts. They are probably benign papules that require no treatment.
