Vaseline is a Petroleum Jelly based moisturiser. As long as the person is not allergic to Vaseline they can apply it to the face but in very limited quantities to prevent blockage of pores and Acne.

Question

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?
