What Does A Lump On The Penis Indicate?

I have a lump on my penis. Lower shaft underneath. Has a couple of heads like a zit. One opened up producing pus just from a little squeezing. About to try gently popping with a sterilized scalpel. Any ideas on what this could be or how to proceed. I routinely shave my lower shaft and figure it may be just an infected hair.
