Red Bump On Penile Shaft, Swollen Lymph Node On Neck. Sign Of Herpes?

I had this red bump on my penile shaft for about a week and a half but the swelling has gone down. I have gotten also swollen lymph nodes on my neck but it only lasted for one day. I have my blood work results coming back tomorrow but does that sound like herpes? I do not have any open sores or blistering or oozing from the red bump.
