    unfortunately hard to tell as herpes can manifest as a singular bump as well. are there any other symptoms?

    Go to the nearest STD testing center immediately and get a swab test with the lesion. Get the full test too.

      If the bump doesn't hurt, it may not be herpes. Maybe possible HPV. I am not a doctor. Please go see your doctor while you have this lesion and have them do a swab test as soon as possible or your nearest STD testing center too.

      it doesnt hurt. it looks like there might be a hair in there. my ingrown hairs look like this sometimes but its a weird place to have one. i have an appointment tomorrow.

      Make sure you get a full complete STD test. Please practice safe sex all the time. Please give us an update too.
