I noticed these strange bumps on my penis. I had an Sti/std screening about a week before these bumps showed up, which was negative and my partner for an Sti/std screening around the same time as me, which was negative. So I doubt it's and std. The bumps look like pimples. Could they be pimples?

Unfortunately, the only way to have this correctly diagnosed treated is to see your physician. You may need a Herpes Virus DNA test. From the picture it does not look like HPV but pictures are notoriously bad as a diagnostic tool. I agree with Drs. Lawton and Rowel. You need an exam by a primary care physician.

Could be herpes, especially if they are painful. Many times STI/STD screening will not include any herpes testing. Could also be genital warts caused by HPV which would also not routinely be tested for. Non STD causes could be allergic reaction or irritation from rubbing on clothes. Best to talk to your doctor to know for sure.

Given that the recent STD screens for you and your partner were negative, this could be a form of drug reaction, especially sulpha drugs. If you are currently on any medications, I would suggest you see your doctor for a review.
I would not attribute that to pimples. If you've never had herpes them that's on likely to be what that is as well because the initial onset of herpes is typically very painful would swollen lymph glands and you would have blisters rather than what looked to be like papules. There is a chance this could be what's called molluscum contagiosum however it's not the classic position for that viral type infection. If you don't get painful vesicles (little blisters with fluid in them) then it's unlikely to be herpes simplex virus. If they become a little more prominent and have a central depression the size of a pinhead let's say then it's more likely to be molluscum contagiosum. It's very unlikely to be condyloma acuminata I or what are referred to as viral genital warts. It's very unlikely to be condyloma acuminata I or what are referred to as viral genital warts. In any case being that they are where they are it wouldn't be a bad idea to get an in person consultation where the presence of lymph nodes are other factors may influence the diagnosis as well as give you a little more confidence (hopefully)!that the right diagnosis is ascribed to your condition.
