Okay so this might sound weird but i have little fleshy white lumps on my penis' foreskin. I googled it and apparently i have an STD. So i thought "What, im a virgin. This cant be possible." So then i googled if u can be born with an STD and YOU CAN! I started to Flip. I thought "Can i get rid of it?" "Am i going to die?". So i want to get rid of it but im too scared to talk to my parents about it. Could someone please help me.
Do i have a STD?
Can i go to the doctor without my parents knowing?
What do i do?
Please answer these questions as im really scared!

If your penis has never had contact with anyone, guy or girl, (and you've never had contact with another guy's penis, like in your mouth) there is no way you can get an STD. At your age in Australia is it common to have routine check-ups with a doctor? If it is, then on your next visit I'd ask (just to put your mind at ease).
If you have not done anything sexually with another person, why would you be too scared to talk to your parents about your concern?
Here's what I'd do: I'd ask my dad to come into my room and I'd tell him that I'm worried about something on "my thing" (I think I'd be too embarrassed to say "my penis", but I think my dad would figure it out.) I'd ask him if he'd look at it and tell me if he thinks it's normal or if I should go to a doctor.

There is a danger with reading articles about diseases in that you easily imagine you have the disease when you don't. Before you panic, check out "pearly penile papules" which are benign. It is also possible to get hard, white spots low on the shaft where a hair folicle is getting ready to sprout a hair. If you are still worried you could consult your dad as Scott suggested, or a doctor. You don't have to mention STDs.

Ya, you need to be able to talk to your parents about stuff like this. Especially since you haven't done anything wrong or bad.

You do not have a STD without a doubt because you never had sex.

I think your issue is just a common skin infection or a hygiene issue. What you had read on the internet is for those who are sexually active and are not careful about getting tested or having their partners tested. Do not be scared, and just tell your parent(s) that you have a skin problem and that you would like to see the doctor. If they ask what kind of skin problem, then just be open by saying there is a problem on your penis. As long as you are not having sex, then your parents will not make a big deal and will take you for an evaluation. You would be surprised how open parents can be if you give them the chance.

I am almost positive that you don't have an STD. You most likely have some kind of irritation on your foreskin. It shouldn't be embarrassing. You need to ask your dad and even show it to him. He will understand and help you out.

I would advise against self-diagnosis through Google. If anything you might have irritation of some sort, and I suggest you get it checked up with your doctor. Also, you can let your parents know. If you are a virgin, there is no reason for them to not be supportive.

Well I’m not trying to scare you or anything, but people can actually get an STI/STD tru drinking milk from a woman who has an STI/STD and although I doubt that you have conceived it in this manor especially if you have noticed the symptoms appearing just now.
It’s still the best to check it out, maybe it’s something not concerning your health, but at least you’ll know what’s up.

I wouldn't 100% use google for anything medical. Noor would any of us here be able to give an accurate description. I agree that you should visit your doctor if you are worried about any condition on the basis of setting your mind at rest having nothing than not doing anything and having something. Speak yo your dad and tell him you are worried. Don't just go straight in and say you think you have an STD!

you should beware of looking up what you may have. If you are concerned just go to a doctor. But you definitely dont want to be a hypochondriac

Absolutely you should show your dad. It is most likely a minor irritation.

Are you sure that they are not just fordyce spots? These are whitish, raised, and look scary even though they are harmless. They can grow anywhere, but are common on the penis and on the foreskin.

Check with your doctor. That is the ONLY definitive way to know if these are a problem.

I used to have this before I got circumcised and it was stretch marks caused by me trying to stretch/save my foreskin at the time. It could just e something like that. Maybe your skin made those marks when trying to grow.

It is unlikely that you have an SDI but not impossible. There are many ways of getting those types of infections. If it doesn't go away mention it to a close family member or go see a doctor.

Don't worry I thought the same thing when I was younger. Those are called fordyce spots. They are completely harmless and are more of a cosmetic concern than anything.

When I was younger I thought I had an STD as well lol

I would say don't believe everything you read so if you don't want to directly talk about it with your parents just ask if you can go to the doctor to get something checked out

I think its the pearly pampules, I don't know the name, but some men have white dots on your foreskin, and its normal. I am a virgin, and I have these white dots on my foreskin.

If your penis has never had contact with anyone, then there is no way you can get an STD! Don't trust what you read!
