If they are many many tiny bumps that are more visible when you pull back foreskin or are on your foreskin , its most likely you have Pearly Penile Papules (PPP) is a clinical skin condition of the male genital organs. The Penile Papules are tiny, white or skin coloured spots that form predominately around the coronal margin of the Glans. The tiny spots often appear in small parallel rows and are 1-3 mm in size. Pearly Penile papules are very common, occurring in about 20% of the male population. The appearance of this condition also means it is often mistaken for a sexually transmitted disease.
Pearly Penile papules are a harmless physiological phenomenon with no malignant potential; they are not infectious and in no way related to sexual activity or personal hygiene.

The Penile Papules usually appear in Men between the ages of 20 and 40 (although have been known to appear in boys as young and 12 and 14), and are typically asymptomatic. The condition will persist throughout life; however; research has shown that they may become less noticeable with increased age .

I a highschooler who has not yet had sex. I masturbate very frequently. I have noticed over a while that little tiny bumps have appeared on my penis. I know its not herpes or at least I hope not. I just want to know if it is something I should worry about

If you haven't had sex, you very likely don't have herpes or an STD. Your question appears at least three times a day on this site. Have you checked any other threads to see if a situation is similar to yours?

Perhaps you should dicuss this with your parents. They will know what to do.
