It seems to be a furuncle. Warts usually do not hurt. Get yourself examined by an ENT specialist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. In the meanwhile , try any antiseptic cream locally. This area comprising the lower nose and upper lip is known as 'the Dangerous Area of the Face' for infections. Though small furuncles, may not require treatment, if you are older, have diabetes or if the furuncle does not heal, you may require antibiotics as well.
