Yes: Yes get examined by doctor,But don't worry as you didn't have any unprotected sex before it might be just irritation to skin from overly masturbating without lubricant.

Red bump: It is obvious that you are very disturbed by the red bump on your penis by all the questions you have asked. For peace of mind see your doctor or a urologist for evaluation and possible treatment
