Dear Sir/Ma'am,
Sorry to hear about your problem. Sometimes bruising can develop in that area without any obvious trauma and usually resolves over a period of time. Considering that the lesion is persisting for the last 3 months, there is no harm in getting it evaluated by a dermatologist.
It can also be a chronic abscess in that region but that would be associated with a certain amount of pain.
Hoping for the best.
