Could be: Herpes lesion. Another possibility would be just an inflamed or infected hair follicle. Should have it looked at.

Need to see doc : A tender ulceration or bump on the genitals needs to be evaluated. This is a question that can not be answered without an exam. A tender bump or ulcer could be genital herpes or other infections. Please schedule a visit promptly.
