There are many, many possible causes of sores on your penis, and diagnosis via the internet is not effective. Abstain from sex, don't use any creams without advice from a health care provider, and make an appointment for an exam as soon as possible. That said, here are some possibilities:
Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Herpes can cause small sores on the penis that come and go. They usually last 7-10 days, and are less than 2 mm in diameter. When they go and come back, they are usually in the same spot.
Syphilis can cause a painless, hard ulcer on the penis.
Chancroid can also cause sores on your penis, as might pubic lice.
Molluscum that are irritated or secondarily infected can cause sores.
