Extremely Itchy Bump On Inner Thigh Near Public Area. Not Ingrown Hair. Help

I need help. I have one bump on my inner thigh, close to my pubic area but not there that itches like crazy and it hurts when rubbed or scratched wrong. I put hot towels from the microwave on it but it will not go away. What is it and what can I do about it? I thought it was an ingrown hair but I don't see any hair there. PLEASE help me!
