What Causes White Mass Along Suture Line After Circumcision?

So i was circuncised last saturday and since sunday been following procedures as they told me to the letter but there is something that has been bothering me.
Is that just above the cut line on the right side all the to the frenulum to i have this white mass (maybe blister) going along with suture line. Is this possibly an infection?
I fell no pain only some weak itchyness coming more from the sutures than from it no other symptoms to note off also i did notice it before while at the hospital but since they did not make any fuss (maybe they did not see it). Also can't tell if it has grown.
p.s english is not my mother language so sorry in advance

Urologist,  's  Response
good day and thank you for being with health care magic. i think you may have a suture granuloma or your body is reacting to the suture that they have used. my suggestion is that just wait for a few more weeks so that the wound will be greatly healed and i'm sure it would look better by that time.
