Brief Answer:
Not a wart, may be foliculitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in HCM

I have gone through the picture, and based on that I don't think it is wart.

It appears more of foliculitis, infection of hair follicle. Commonly caused by friction from shaving or tight clothing.

I would suggest you not to scratch, use over the counter antibiotic cream like neosporin for local application will reduce your symptom.

Take care
