Lump on pubic bone (sorry if tmi)

[GoodGollyMissMolly]

Hi last night I noticed a lump on the left hand side of my pubic bone right on the edge of the hair line. It is about the size of a small marble and is slightly painful.

Anyone got an idea of what it might be?

Miss molly, before you go to the doctor, could it be an ingrowng hair.
I googled and her is how you are supposed to get them out.

Apply a warm, moist compress to the area for a few minutes to soften the skin. Thoroughly wet a clean washcloth with very warm water and hold it against the affected area. When the washcloth cools down, run it under warm water again. If you can see the ingrown hair embedded in the skin, this treatment will soften the hair and bring it closer to the surface. If you can't initially see the hair, leave the warm compress on until it rises to the skin's surface. If you apply the compress for ten minutes and you still can't see any sign of hair, the problem is probably something else, then see a doctor if the problem persists.
Use a sterile needle or tweezers to gently tease the hair out of the skin. The warm compress should have brought the hair to the surface, don't dig for the hair if you can't easily get at it. Don't pluck the hair out completely if you can avoid doing so; just make sure that the ingrown end is out of the skin. It may take a little time to coax the hair out: be patient, and do not cut the skin.

Thanks newyorkdolls, i will give that a try and see what happens.
