Does Tender Bump On Penis Indicate Sign Of Herpes?
I have a bump that appears to be a spider bite or pimple about 2 inches above my penis. It is not blistering, nor does it have the head of a zit. It is tender, but doesn t sting, burn, or itch. The bump is probably a quarter inch wide and firm. It appeared a few days ago, maybe 3 or 4. Maybe getting smaller? Could it be herpes? I was exposed to the blood of someone with herpes when she cut herself and I was dressing the wound. Got her blood on my hands. Thanks!
