Brief Answer:
Right now, NO!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this lump and all the inconveniences this has caused you. Fro now, there is no need to see a doctor. The commonest cause of this would be an infection of a hair follicle. Most resolve spontaneously and require no further attention. I suggest you monitor for now. This should resolve within a week and if it doesn't, then let me know. Also, I will appreciate if you could send a picture to me to review as well.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
