Welcome to health care magic.

1.The most possible thing is - hair follicle infection / inflammation with collection of pus within.
2.In this case first thing do not disturb the lump in any manner, maintain local hygiene.
3.Clean the area with antiseptic liquid and avoid cloths which gives constant irritation.
4. If it is on going, means complicated - which might need a small incision and drainage followed by a course of antibiotics.
5.I would recommend to see your GP and get examined and treated accordingly.

Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.
