Whatever they are and as a health care professional I suggest you show them to a urologist

They are Fordyce spots, quite common and normal.

I don’t think these are Fordyce Spots, these are unevenly shaped, and you can see some Fordyce Spots in the background.

Are they painful or itchy?

No pain, no itching, just unsightly more than anything

Have you had unprotected sex recently?

Well I don’t know what theses are, maybe wait a week or two and if they don’t go down, see your GP or urologist.

Get yourself checked. They may be connected to your unprotected oral sex. If so, the person who gave you oral needs to know.

Hi all, did as you mentioned, got a full set of tests done (or at least I thought), almost everything has come back negative now, still waiting on two tests but fingers crossed. My question is when I queried about the Herpes testing I was told that if I was showing symptoms it would come up on the results - if this was Herpes I am showing symptoms so it should have come up on results right...? Also I mentioned HPV thinking it was the same thing but was told it's not and that there's another test for that! If all these have come back negative is it even worth going for another test, from my understanding Herpes and HPV were always linked i.e. if you had one you got the other... Just my ignorance maybe! Either way if it doesn't clear up in the week I'll go and see the GP with my results.
