The first thing you need to know is that if his penis touches you--or even if your or his hand touches him and then touches you, you can still get an STD. You can also get it from oral sex if his mouth is infected. This of course is ONLY if he has an STD, you can't get an STD if he doesn't have one.
The bump is probably just a cyst, which is basically a big ugly pimple. Or it might be an infected hair follicle. Leave it alone for several days and don't poke at it, it should go away. You might try putting warm compresses on it (a hot wash cloth would be perfect). If it doesn't go away or get better within a week, then go see your doctor. It is ALMOST certainly nothing to worry about.
If you are a teenager and have to ask your parents to see the doctor just tell them that you have a really painful pimple in your crotch. They don't need to know the details beyond that. Don't call it a bump or anything like that--feel free to be clear with them that you are sure it is a pimple (even if you're not sure--this will hopefully ward off uncomfortable questions). Your doctor CAN NOT, I repeat, can NOT, discuss your sexual activity with your parents without your permission! You may be able to call your doctor and make an appointment on your own, as well.
Good luck and don't worry, it's probably just a pimple or infected hair follicle!

perhaps a wart? sounds like it could be. they also come from oral. for ex if he had a cold sore whether inside or outside his mouth the virus transmitted onto your genitals especially if the area wasn't washed right away. which probably you could've still gotten it but it decreases your chances if you wash it asap after oral. anyway it might be but be cool that you didn't get it from sex. you will need to go get it checked. try planned parenthood!

It may be genital herpes that can be transmitted with oral sex.

Facts About Genital Herpes
* Genital herpes has a phase called prodrome. During this phase, you get sensations such as tingling, itching or some pain, etc. You then know that the herpes will break out in a few days - a day or two or more.
* Genital herpes can easily spread during this prodrome period or during active outbreak. It may also spread when no outward signs are present, because the virus remains active on the skin.
* Genital herpes commonly gets transferred through skin cuts or mucous membranes. Oral cavity, vagina, anus and glans penis are all covered with mucous membrane.
* Genital herpes does not cause serious health problems, but a person suffering from it is more susceptible to get HIV.
* Asymptomatic reactivation or asymptomatic shedding is the phase during which herpes can spread without any outward sign.
* Anti-viral therapy can reduce the probability of spread. Your doctor will tell you about it.
* Herpes is diagnosed with viral culture during active outbreaks. During dormancy (no visible signs), a blood test can be done. But these tests are not very accurate.
* If a person has cold sores and performs oral sex, his/her partner may get genital herpes with virus type 1.
* The herpes virus cannot live long on dead surfaces such as toilet seats, towels, etc. It is rare to contact herpes from these objects.
* Herpes is caused by viruses HSV1 and HSV2. HSV1 commonly causes oral herpes or cold sores and HSV2 normally causes genital herpes. However both these viruses can be found in oral cavity or near/on genitals.
* HSV2, which commonly causes genital herpes, may be present in the mouth but it rarely affects the mouth.
* Use of ointments or creams on genital herpes may slow down treatment. Speak to your doctor about this before using any thing.
* It is difficult for a mother to pass on herpes to her newborn unless she has contacted herpes during the last three months of pregnancy or if she has active herpes during delivery. In that case, doctors recommend cesarean section.

Could be an ingrown hair or just a large pimple. Is it really tender? If you're worried go see your Gynocologist.
