What Causes A Lump Under The Penis?

Dear Doctor, My son is 1.5 years old and he also has cyst/lump in left side of penis under the skin. We showed it a pediatrician and he suggested circumcision. Is this really recommended solution? Doctor also said that at this young age the baby s skin is very tight and hence he cannot remove the cyst manually (without surgical intervention). So my question shall I go for circumcision of my son? Is it safe? How long will the pain remain after procedure? Please advise. Thanks gopal
