Would follow up with MD / urgent care . May be a caruncle. https://www.healthline.com/health/urethral-caruncle

You can not see the urethra. You saw the urinary opening(meatus). sometimes a tiny cherry like swelling (caruncle ) develops in the area. Pl see a Urologist and she/he will fix it. Nothing to worry about
