try squeezing it...  

Answer 2

Maybe.  Stay positive!

Answer 3

s*x is the culprit ,

Answer 4

Probably an ingrown hair, but this website says Herpes is sometimes mistaken for ingrown hairs or razor bumps.  Unless you have never been sexually active, you should probably have a doctor check it out.  Definitely you shouldn't have s*x with anyone until you know, because if it is Herpes you could pass it to them.

I'm putting in a second link of someone who had a sore that sounds like yours.  A dermatologist answered it, so you might want to take a look.

Answer 5

uhm? if im not mistaken...razor bumps usually hurt.Some are big and some are small. They are usually dark in color and could be mistaken as a pimple...and usually no hair comes out of it your right about that. There are some bumps though that do last about a month before they start to disapear.

I really dont think u have nothing to worry about. It sounds like just another ingrown hair from shaving like you said. Ive had a bump like that before.

I had that myself and i went to get checked at the OBGYN and i tested negative. You havent mentioned anything out of ordinary that might be in relation to std's. i think you'll be fine.

Answer 6

yes i could have just gotten a bit infected but should be fine over time

and an ingrown hair would hurt

Answer 7

Razor burn and ingrown hairs usually don't stay that long, but I guess they could. My recommendation woud be to get it checked out ASAP.  if it is HPV you want to have it treated right away.  It is not something to mess around with and there is a vaccination against other strains.  If that is the case, your doctor will (freeze, burn?) it off and your body will likely build an immunity to it and you won't see it again, but don't freak, and don't mess around with this...it could lead to more problems if you don't get it treated.  Please go see a doc and don't be embarassed.  Hope this helps.

Answer 8

Maybe the hair is still ingrown and has not popped out yet.  Try a tweezer to see if there is a real fine strand of hair sticking out.
