Suggest Treatment For Lump Below Rim Of Penis

Hi, I am 17 years old and I noticed this morning that I had a lump right below the rim of my penis. Without touching it for a few hours it went down luckily but now it seems that the rim (Glands) of my penis is. Alittle red and looks slightly bigger or puffier than usualy. I have no clue what this means and I have been freaking out all day on what this could be. Is it an STD or anything harmful to me? Please I could use answers badly. Thank you!

Hi. Do not worry. Have you been involved in any sexual activity in the past few weeks? Also is it tender to touch and is there any fluid or watery collection in it? Have you had problems with retraction of your foreskin? Do let us know answers to the above. Meanwhile keep the part safe from any injury and avoid touching it too much. And contact us back soon. Take care.
