Where at?
If on the shaft (penis itself; not the head) it may just be hair follicles, which are normal. Those would be tiny.
On the other hand, if they're on the rim of your penis' head, they maybe pearly penile papules, also normal.

If it's been like that for as long as you can remember, you're fine. =)

Let me assure you that you are okay. The white dots are normal. You have entered puberty and your penis is starting to grow. The white dots are glands in the skin where hair will eventually grow from. They are normal and as your penis skin darkens they are easier to see. They secret oils to keep the skin soft etc. They are like sebacious gland. You really do not need to see a doctor. Since you are 13 your should be masturbating several times a day. Masturbation is good for you and your penis and there is nothing wrong with it. Good luck

If the dots are at the base of the penis then they could be hair folicles. If they are on the head then you might need to go to the doctor. If you have white dots on your penis after you ejaculate or get it stiff then soft, then it's just because the skin was stretched and now is trying to shrink since the blood is leavin the penis.

Do not worry. There is no need to panic, it is a completely normal thing that all teenage boys get during puberty. You are 13 and so many things are changing on your body. Go play some video games and dont give it a second thought. Your fine.

Seek immediate medical attention, before you go to pee and your penis falls off in the toilet.

They could be hair folicles growing or they could be pimples. It is possible to get pimples anywhere, just to let you know.

Tell your parents and talk to one of them. I don't think they will make it embarrassing for you. Talk to your Dad he may know what they are.
