Hello, I dont know if i should be here because im 13 yr old.

I have a HUGE concern. On the lower shaft of my menis there are "regular" colored bumps. I dont think there warts. But they are there. They cannot be an STD because i have obviously not had sex before. Should i be concerned? I am a bit concerned.

DETAILS
I do masturbate, and i use saliva as a lube. Is the saliva causing this? Is masturbating causing this? I am circumcized, but i dunno whats wrong...help

By regular i assume you mean skin colour....

Its nothing to worry about their just hair follicles (spelling) although they may not appear to have hair growning out of them. If you have a look around on the board loads of people have asked questions about it, totally normal! I remember spotting them at 15 :/ scared me too

Hey bud, sure you can be here. However, its best not to post your age, full name or e-mail address. Don't worry at all about those bumps, we've all got them to some degree. Using saliva as lube for masturbation is fine and won't cause them at all. And don't worry about masturbation either....its totally healthy and the safest form of sexual release available. Feel free to write anytime with other questions.
