Hard large pea sized bump on the shaft of my penis

For about 4-5 weeks prior there was an extremely small white bump that looked like a zit that would show up on my face in the same spot that didn't seem like much of an issue. Then suddenly about 4 days ago this huge lump was there instead of the small white thing. After doing some research it looked like it wasn't a big deal but it has stayed there for a few days now and has only gotten worse. It is very smooth and shiny with a dark spot on the top. Tender to the touch. As some background information I am 18 years old and generally masturbate once per day, but once as this showed up I haven't done anything. Any help or points in the correct direction would be appreciated! If needed I will add a few pictures for clearance.

Sounds like it may be an ingrown hair...or it could have been a sore that's getting infected. You should probably have that checked out.

Sounds like it's getting infected. You should really see a doctor about that.
