Pearl-looking bump near anus [No pic, don't worry]

I'd posted in the Sexual Health area, because it was the only place I could think of. If there's a better place than there or here, please let me know. I'd posted a photo of just the bump, as best I could, to avoid super awkwardness.
Just before I got sick 2 weeks ago, I noticed that a bump grew without my notice. Given I often "tabot" as most Filipinos do after toilet use, I normally would feel that while washing. It's almost as if it developed very quickly. I'm very particular about my hygiene, and I haven't been sexually active in literally several years. For personal reason, my partner and I have chosen to wait until marriage, and we couldn't be happier with each other. Thus, I can rule out that idea.
The bump itself looks much like an abscess filled with white puss about the burst on its own, except that it's hard, and is clearly attached to some nerve endings. It's no bigger than a tailor's pin. I've carefully poked at it, and it clearly isn't meant to be popped.
The only thing I can think of that would be remotely related would be the fact I shave once a week, and have gotten a weird ingrown hair situation. However, clogged hair follicles often create a small abscess, which make them easy to pop and also free the trapped hair. I've dealt with plenty around my areola, in spite of frequently moisturizing. I really want to know what this is, that way I can figure out if I need a doctor's visit, or am able to remove it myself somehow. I haven't noticed it grow, even if I am a tad worried it's gotten the slightest bit bigger since the last time. It hasn't caused me any pain or trouble. But I still can't discount the fact complications could happen if I don't deal with it soon enough.
