My sick puppy has bumps near his penis. Are they related to his illness?

Question

Hello. My puppy has been sick, he had parasites and gastroenteritis. Now he has some zit-like formations near his peepee. What is this? Is this related to the other problems or is it a new thing? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | unneutered | 2 months and 6 days old | 55 lbs

These are likely abscesses and I am afraid another visit to the vet is in order. These puss pockets may be because he might have a poor immune system or his immunity is down due to the other problems he has had. Your puppy will need some antibiotics to kill the bacteria that cause these lesions or an antibacterial shampoo. Please take Spooky to your veterinarian ASAP.
