 Hi Bamagirl66,
Most likely you have a hair follicle or skin pore that has become clogged and infected. I would recommend you see your doctor because these sometimes need antibiotics to clear up.
Since you've posted in the STD category I'll just add that this does not sound like an STD.
Best wishes.

That was quite fast. I think the antibiotics will take care of it for you.
Best wishes.
