Anyone get them?
Anyone get them?
I have a few times. Just try to keep your hands and penis clean. If you get them and you use oils in that area you might want an alternative too.
There is no such thing as penis pimples. What you most likely have are fordyce spots, which are simply large oil producing glands or maybe you have pearly penile papules which is the same thing only on the head of the penis. Both are perfectly normal and totally untreatable because there is nothing wrong with you. They may change in number/size through out your life, but generally if you have them you have them for life.

you can get pimples anywhere on your body. with the exeption of your lips eyes and glans. if you have genital pimples try not to pop them! they only spread if you do. like regular pimples i suppose. perfectly normal, if just a bit irritating. also just try to keep clean. i wonder what lubricant you use for jelqing??There is no such thing as penis pimples.

well are they actually pimples or lumps??
If all you have is a blocked pore or an ingrown hair then just leave it alone and stay clean. However if what you have is fordyce spots or PPP then it doesn't matter if you clean yourself all day everyday and use all the products in the world or go to a dermatologist and get laser treatments or surgery or what ever you can think of because they will never leave. Its like asking your doctor to cure your blue eyes.
I don't like the term pimple because its ambiguous, pimple can refer to anything that looks like a bump. You can NOT get ACNE on your penis. Go to any medical doctor anywhere, any dermatologist and ask that question. They will tell you the same thing.
Here are a few links: Fordyce's spot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia this is fordyce spots (don`t like wiki, too bad. It is bang on with this information) Hirsuties papillaris genitalis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia this is PPP - pearly penile papules.
For the lazy / overwhelmed. Some important snips from both pages but you should still read through.
"Fordyce's spots[1] are small, painless, raised, pale, red or white spots or bumps 1 to 3 mm in diameter that may appear on the shaft of the penis or on the labia, as well as the inner surface (retromolar mucosa) and vermilion border of the lips of the face. They are common in men and women of all ages."
"normally, sebaceous glands are only found in association with a hair follicle. They are not known to be associated with any disease or illness and are of cosmetic concern only. They aren't infectious and are a natural occurrence on the body."
"Hirsuties papillaris genitalis (more commonly referred to as 'pearly penile papules', or PPP) is a skin condition of the male genital organs. It is a harmless anatomical variation with no malignant potential, although it can be mistaken for HPV warts by inexperienced doctors."
"Pearly penile papules are not a sexually transmitted disease and are in fact quite common"
Finally, if you are worried in anyway by a lump/bump on your junk. Go to a doctor. The people of the internet can only say/do so much/little for you.

It starts off as a little bump. Then it swells up bigger like a regular pimple would. It's red like a regular pimple. It hurts to touch like a lot of pimples. It isn't exactly "small", it's not painless, so I know it's not Fordyce's spots. I know it's not PPP, I've googled pictures and it's not that. I'm quite convinced that it is a pimple. Oh, and I only grow hair at the base of the shaft. I highly doubt it's an ingrown hair, since I don't have any hairs that grow midshaft.

Android, what I've heard is the same as brek, that you can get "pimples" basically anywhere on your body. Mostly I only ever get them on my face or back, but I have had them, although rarely, on my legs and only a couple of times on my penis. Acne is quite a general term, the pimples I am referring to and ones the same as you can commonly get on the face (red spots with white head). Looks like a pimple, acts like a pimple, don't know why wouldn't be one? I did a bit of googling and haven't yet found any information which suggested you can't get acne/pimples on the penis.
I have some very effective home remedies for pimples...they are...
*Regularly applying the pulp of ripe tomatoes on the face for about an hour or so helps in the effective treatment of Pimples. Cucumber pulp can also be used in the same way with the same results.
*Raw papaya juice can be applied on the Pimples to cure Pimples naturally.
*Take some fenugreek leaves, crush them and add sufficient water, just enough to make a paste. Apply this paste on the face over night and wash it off with warm water in the morning as an effective natural remedy for natural Pimple removal. This remedy is particularly useful for individuals with dry skin.
