Question:
I noticed about a month ago i had a tiny bump on the head of my penis. About a week ago, another tiny bump appeared beside, but not quite as big. I've seen pictures of genetal warts and HPV, but mine bumps look nothing like the pictures i have seen. On the first bump it looks to have a clear center. Please help, kinda concerned. Thanks...

There are several diferent varieties of HPV (the Human Papilloma Virus)that come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Some strains of the virus are actually not even visible by the naked eye. The best way to know for sure what it is and how to get treated is to get checked out by a family docotor, or a sexual health nurse at a local clinic like Planned Parenthood.
