If you are sexually active, you will probably want to get this bump checked out to rule out genital warts.
If it isn't that, here are some possibilities:
Pearly penile papules are raised bumps of somewhat paler colour around the base of the glans and are normal. Fordyce's spots are small, raised, yellowish-white spots 1-2mm in diameter that may appear on the penis, as well as the inner surface and vermilion border of the lips of the face, and are normal.
Sebaceous prominences are raised bumps similar to Fordyce's spots on the shaft of the penis, located at the sebaceous glands and are normal.
