Need advice on possible syphilis sore.

21 days ago I had fully protected sex with a girl I know, but not real well. I was looking around groin this morning just because I had been worried , found a small zit like bump on left side of scrotum. Couldn't see it real well but looked as if it had a head on it. I squeezed it and it seemed to pop..... Kind of. How do the cankers present ? Do they open right up and present as a full lesson?

Also I;m going into my third day from finding the spot , it seems to be shrinking I think. Also by the 2nd or third day it should have eroded into a chancre by now?

Actually a little smaller that that, and burns or stings to the touch
