    Bumps, lumps are very common.
    Common lumps (if you don't have an STD) are cysts, filled with oil or water or hair, or an ingrown hair... a large pimple, maybe, even a bug bite. One that might need an antibiotic is one filled with pseudomonas bacteria, which grows in a greenish stuff a little like nasal mucous.

    Go wash very well and rinse very well and pat gently dry, and put a bandaid over it, and if you have some antiseptic ointment, put that on. That is more a boil. Tomorrow look closely at it with a mirror and flashlight for signs of any red skin, sign of infection.
