not completely sure (as i am not a doctor), but it looks more like a cyst to me. If there are multiples of these it may be herpes, but if this is the only one, and it continues to grow, it is more likely to be a cyst. Don't pick at this or try to pop it, you will be doing more harm than good. Try to get this checked out ASAP as it is causing you pain.

Looks like a cyst to me! My mom gets those a lot and goes to the ER to get them popped/drained.

I'm not a doctor but that looks like a boil. I'd try applying warm compresses until you can get it checked out!
