Possible std

I have been racking my brain and constantly worrying. I recently had a painless hard lump on the edge of my penis head (around the size of a bb, maybe smaller), it stayed in the lump stage for around 3 days and then turned to a scab (no discharge, pain, burning, or itching), scab stayed for around 3-4 days and now the lump is still there but is decreasing in size everyday (almost gone). I have had small bumps on the head of my penis since before I was sexually active and I an concerned at what this could be? I have considered MC and maybe herpes....i am 26 years old and married and never cheated nor has my wife, I am concerned maybe I or she has had a std in a dormant state abd it is just now showing symptoms? Any advice?

Hello

Though you bump sounds a bit alarming, I can't say for sure what it is.  It doesn't sound like herpes from what you descirbe.

I would however recommend you to take a syphilis, herpes, and MC test.  See a physican for this matter.
