Is A Bump On The Penile Shaft Indicative Of An STD?

I have a bump on my penile shaft where my pubic hairs start. it is just one bump and when I popped it pus came out the first time. I rubbed some ointment on the bump and it returned. I popped it again pus came out then blood. It returned a third time this time a little hard around the area and I popped it and blood came out. Should I be concerned and what can I take for it? Do I have an STD

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may not be the symptoms of STD unless it is being tested and came positive result till then it could be simple boil and it could be due to folliculitis, local application of antibiotic would be enough to cure this and the best option is "Povidone Iodine" take care for good hygiene hope this information helps.
