Could this be Herpes or Warts?

Posted , 3 users are following.

a strange bump has appeared at the base or my penis. it seems to have tiny white specks inside of it that become more clear if i stretch the skin. i have been to the doctor and they didnt think it was herpes but are doing blood work. Any ideas what this could be?

    could be HPV or Herpes. Go to the doctor when you can see something that way he can swab you and test it. Good luck
