Folliculitus History In Pubic Area. Large Red Bump Seen Underside Shaft. What Could This Be ?

Hello, I have a history of diagnosed folliculitus in my pubic are before from sweat and chaffage.
However, last night I was with a questionable lady and I have to be what appears to be a large red bump on the underside of my shaft near the base. I used a condom but I don't think it reached that far down.
It looks similar to infected follicles from the past, but I'm thinking the worst.
