I have a back dimple that always grows on the same spot. it's always hard and it hurts when i try to pop it. can it be infected?

Tough to say: Without examining you, it is tough to say what your lesion is and if you are infected in that area, etc. Have the skin lesion evaluated and properly diagnosed, so any treatment can be started. Best wishes.
