ā€œSmall irritation on shaft and bumpā€

Small irritation on shaft of penis with a small bump that is skin color not see through. Irritation reminds me of possible friction burn and the other could just be a pimple but Iā€™m worried about herpes. Area burns a little but no discomfort while urinating and nothing else. Really have to stretch the skin with adequate lighting to see anything.
