    Blocked skin pore, or hair folicle, or ingrown hair are the most common cause. When you wash or shower make sure the area is always fully dried for starters - clean underwear every day can help prevent this.

    Get yourself some liquid antiseptic and dab a little directly onto this 2 or 3 times a day - more than likely it will heal in 3 or 4 days ....
