I've been tested for stds and came back negative but found a pimple like spot on my genital. what could it be?

A pimple: Not all bumps are stds. Sometimes a pimple is just a pimple. An ingrown hair or infected hair follicle is another possibility. The only way to know for sure though is to be examined by your obgyn or primary care provider. Many times we can tell just by looking and help put your mind at ease.
