I think you are best off to see a doctor, just to be sure. Without seeing these bumps, I don't think anyone can diagnose what they might be. As far as the penis, I think they may be sebaceous cysts which many men develop, and if you keep trying to squeeze them, they may erupt but it is better to leave them alone since they are not infected, but could become infected if you break them. This may have been what happened with the one which became red.
As far as your lip, that's another matter and your best bet is to see a dermatologist for those.

My boyfriend had these tiny bump things near the head of his penis for a while now (4-6 months) and it hasnt gone away. I thought it was warts so he went to see his doc ,but he didnt think so. He said these are Pearly Penile Papules. They look very similar to warts but they are in no way related to sexual activity or bad hygiene.

If they are pearly penile papules, then you can remove them with tea tree oil. This is most used home made treatments for papules.
