Brief Answer:
It could just be a cyst or beginning of hair follicle infection.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.
How big is the bump? What is the colour of the bump? Where exactly it is located? Since you did not mention about itching, I don't think you have it.
From what you have written in my opinion it could just be a cyst or beginning of hair follicle infection. If it is cyst, it does not go away with cream or ointment.
Just apply fucidin ointment twice daily and see. If it is beginning of hair follicle infection it may be of help. If the bump does not disappear in a week's time, consult your doctor.
I hope this helps. If you have further concerns, do write to me. I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
