Dear Pimples On Your Penis,
It is possible to have pimples on all parts of your body. During your teen years pimples are a normal part of life and usually leave as unexpectedly as they came. Also, it is important to note that penile and scrotal skin can be lumpy and bumpy by nature.
Taking an active awareness is a vital component of staying healthy and one that should not be overlooked. These pimples may be nothing serious. However, it is important to see your doctor if the pimples change color, size or gives you pain, especially if you are sexually active (could be a sign of an STD or an infection). If you live in northern New Jersey and would like help finding a doctor you can call the Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health at 973.971.6475.
