Note if it is tender or painful. Is there any swelling or drainage from the bump. Any urethral drainage or burning with urination. Have you seen any unusual rashes anywhere else on your body. No sex until you have this seen and treated by a medical specialist. Many different illnesses can present like this. If you must have sex, nothing oral and use a condom. This must be seen by a medical specialist!
Are you sexually active? If you are, the next questions would be, is it painful or painless? Painless we want to rule out syphilis and if it’s painful, we would consider testing for herpes. Your PCP or an STD clinic could certainly check you for these to be safe though results could take a few business days.
