There’s a bump on my chin that won’t pop. Please help!

I've had this bump on my chin for a while now (probably around 7-8 months). I'm a 17 year old female. At first this bump gave me a shock feeling everytime i touched it lightly but then it stopped. I remember taking tweezers and pulling the little clear head off of it and all it did was bleed when i would squeeze it but other than that nothing came out. I've left it alone since then and just recently ive been wanting to get rid of it so i starting picking at it with tweezers and it bled again like it did before. Still nothing came out when i squeezed but in the middle almost like in my pore is this like piece of skin sticking out and if i even touched it it would hurt so terribly bad so i left it alone and put peroxide on it. it formed a really bad scab and i picked it off because it looked really gross. The piece of skin in my pore was still there and hurt worse that the day before but i was able to get it off a little. No bleeding occured this time. I've researched everything i could and havent found anything. i just want to know what it is so i can treat it for myself but if i cant then i will have to just go to a dermatologist.

it sounds like a skin tag. In the UK you can get them removed the GP - and at your dermatologist.
The underlying cause is an immune issue. Look into probiotics and digestive enzymes to support the gut.

Maybe try some drawing ointment/salve. If it is infected and too deep to squeeze out this will help. Don't keep touching it though or will get worse. If it doesn't go away though, then you will need to see a dermatologist. Just in case it is something nasty.
