Molluscum is fairly common. It sounds like the doctor did the scraping to be sure. Typically it can be diagnosed just by looking at it, but if you have a somewhat unusual looking lesion it doesn't hurt to take a sample and check it out under a microscope to be sure. Bleeding is not unusual after a skin scraping. As long as the bleeding stopped then it's not something to be concerned about. Sounds like your doctor is just being extra diligent by taking a scraping. To me it sounds like you are in good hands. I'd rather have a doctor that takes a sample just to be sure than one who shrugs at it and tells you to give it time.
First of all, I wouldn't recommend using a band-aid. See the section in this Mayoclinic article titled Proper Use of Aldara.
"Do not bandage or otherwise wrap the skin being treated, unless directed to do so by your doctor. Materials that are not airtight, such as cotton gauze or cotton underwear, may be used if needed."
You want to make sure there is airflow.
Before bed, rub a small amount of cream in until it disappears and wear cotton underwear.
Every doctor I've consulted with regarding Aldara has explained that when the skin begins to react through signs of scabbing, inflammation, sores, and oozing, it means that the drug is working and causing the expected immune system response.
Even though you haven't experienced negative symptoms, I would strongly urge you to be very careful with your application of this topical. If you over apply like I did, you may experience extremely painful/uncomfortable symptoms (though not life threatening).
Aldara cream may not work for everyone - some people show no response.
I didn't start to see any signs of immune response until the third week (so it could take even longer for you?). At that point, I started to see redness, and ulcerations form. By week 8, I looked like I needed emergency attention. Be sure to work with your doctor through this process as he/she will guide you through any complications that may arise.
Listen to this podcast that talks to experts about public bathrooms and debate whether to sit or squat. Basically you will get germs on you either way, hell even your pants don’t protect you. But definitely not going to catch STD or anything. It’s an interesting listen and would put your mind at ease
You can by your own freezing kit and do it yourself.

While some strains of HPV are associated with cancer, most are not. Freeze it (or them if you get more) off and go get the vaccine.
I highly recommend this product. Like you I get immediate irritation with any soap and the soap from the link is like night and day difference. Follow the instructions and I promise you’ll be shocked!!!

It doesn't look like a herpes outbreak.
Have you tried seeing if it's Pompholyx?
Feeling of swelling right above your penis? I’m not a medical professional in any way, but just googling.
If it’s herpes, then the swollen lymph nodes could cause it.
But lymph nodes swell for all kinds of reasons.
You could also have bruised the area other ways (like, sex).
If you are in school, there’s probably a clinic. Most cities have some kind of cheap clinic for aids tests, and the doctors usually handle other stds.
First, why would you use someone else’s stuff especially if you know they sleep around. Please don’t do that ever again. I never use razor on my pubic area or dick. If i do i break out like you. That was before i started having sex so i know its not stds. You could also be sensitive it. I only trim. I will include the link for my personal favorite. I use it for trimming my pubic area, dick, balls, and hole. I don’t know anything about that dark spot so I cannot help you there. I would get tested if you are concerned about it.

How did it go for you? Are they still there?
I might have similar looking spots below the head of my penis, and they have also been on my left hand and right hand, plus right wrist. It is currently only visible on my right wrist and on my penis.
Yours seem not as bad as mine though.
Obvious pre-face: I'm not a doctor.
This is the liquid nitrogen gun they used. It sprays a stream of liquid nitrogen onto the targeted area. Most of the over the counter products I've seen just have a swab that you hold onto the effected area. I've also never used over the counter cryo that hurt as bad or was strong enough to cause blistering (I also haven't used a whole lot of over the counter cryo either so take that with a grain of salt). I'd say its really up to you if you want to try it or not.
Could be herpes, looks like and the symptoms sound similar as well. Get a swab test ASAP. Or you can order you’re own antivirals from hellowisp.com and start on some l-lysine to heal them. Good luck and happy healing
Being in a very busy work life(80 hours a week) and a LDR, taking care of them hasn't been a big worry. I applied some https://www.amazon.com/Naturasil-For-Molluscum-15-ml/dp/B001B2SQ3O/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=DULNQW2YXN0N&keywords=molluscum+treatment&qid=1560608566&s=gateway&sprefix=mollu%2Caps%2C159&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1 . it worked pretty well actually. I think I'm down to 2!
Sure looks like it. Derma-E Tea Tree Antiseptic after a shower. dont use soap on it.
How can you be 100% sure all the Molluscum is gone? I’m kinda paranoid about it. Mine took 12 months to go away. I always keep Zyma Derm for Molluscum just in case. It’s the only thing that helped me get rid of it.
