Single lump on shaft

lti
Hi there i have been having this single bump midway on backside of my penile shaft since about january or february, i have been really concerned on what it culd be. I have alredy gone to get checked recently about 2 months ago for stds an everything came back clean. It has not changed any since ive noticed it n if it has then i havent been able to notice it. I am concerned it might be hpv seein as how the warts vary in appearance from person to person. I did have unprotected intercourse with my ex but it was last november. The bump is kind of hard and its just there and doesnt go away, the gyno took a look when i went an said it wasnt an std. I have yet to go somewhere else for a 2nd opinion til i can afford it. any suggestions wuld be appreciated i mean it doesnt look anything like a wart to me. Sumtimes it looks white but when masturbating i notice a reddish color on it. Thanks

First off,
Warts won't change color in any circumstance such as masturbating.

Also, if you look at the bump, if the overall texture (skin pattern) of your penis is the same on the bump as it is with the rest of your penis. This is not a wart. If the regular skin pattern of your penis ends at where the bump begins, and from that point on, it has its own different pattern/texture. Then this is a wart.

If you also had visual diagnoses already and they said it is not a wart, it probably isn't. Did you have a HPV swab test done on that area? This might make you feel less anxious.

This couldnt be HPV for they are flesh colored and resemble more of cauliflower patterns. This could be something else. Plus, you have been told you dont have it.
