Anything is possible. If this is something you are just noticing then wait a day or two to see if it grows like pimple head on it. This will indicate that it may be a ingrown hair. If it does not go away or a hair does not protrude from it in a few days I would suggest talking to your mother and letting her decide if you need to see a doctor.
None of us are doctors and even if we were we could not and should not make diagnoses over the web. Something like you are asking needs to be seen before it can be diagnosed an treated.
Men and boys get in grown hairs all the time from shaving. We see them and get to know them for what they are. The problem comes in when the ingrown hair is someplace where one cannot see it then someone else has to look at it and decide what it is. There is a very old and very worn out statement parents use in these situations that goes like this; " I use to change your diapers, there is nothing down there I haven't seen before."
While this is true statement it probably won't lessen your embarrassment any having to allow mom to look down there. Two things to consider: First, it is either mom or a doctor who will have to look. Second, neither mom or the doctor can tell just by looking at you whether or not you are still a virgin.
What you need to do while you are waiting, a few days, to see if this bump matures into a pimple head is decide if mom or the doctor is the one who gets to look at it. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
