  5. I'm a 17-year-old who's sexually active and I'm a bit worried about something weird going on. I've noticed more and more small red dots on my penis, and though they don't hurt or itch, if I pinch them, they bleed a tiny bit and feel raw afterward. I had an accident a couple of weeks ago where I cut my foot on a rusty nail, but it seems fine with no infection. I'm on a school trip right now, so seeing a doctor isn't easy. Could this be something serious that I should get checked out? It's just strange because it started with only a few dots and now there are lots more all over the head and foreskin, and it's only been three days. Any idea what this could be?
