Spot

I have a spot on one of my flaps. I’m not sure if it’s an ingrown hair or not. There’s no whitehead but it’s really sore. Obviously can’t post a picture for obvious reasons! Just wondered if anyone has had anything similar before? Will contact the doctors in the morning for an appointment just to get it checked!
