Multiple causes : A lump in the area can be due to a number of causes including a small cyst, boil, or lymph node. See a physician such as a gynecologist or dermatologist for evaluation of the lesion.

Please see your Dr.: Most likely this is a cyst. When they are not inflamed, they are small and hard. However, there are a number of different skin conditions that can present like that, so it is best to have your dermatologist evaluate it for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
