A singular "lump" at the base of the penis may only be something as common as an an ingrown public hair. Keep in mind, herpes simplex II will appear in patches of red, swollen and generally puss filled patches of "lumps" in the oral, genital or anal areas. Genital warts, aka HPV, if at all, appear as very small hard "wart-like" formations, which can be singular or in patches. I'm not a doctor, so go see one. Keep in mind most STDs are easily treated and cured. If not, it is best to detect their presence early on to minimize their effect. Go see an MD. Best of luck

i agree as in goin to see the doctor. and i know what your talkin about, but u didnt give much detail, i have the same thing but its going away, it started as a hard red bump and within a day and a half it went down and hurt alot less, when i squeezed it(the bump) alil puss came out and the more i squeezed it the smaller it got. But if its not the case with you then deff make an appointment, either way you should. and goodluck to you hope its nothing to serious.
