What Does A Small, Soft, Flexible Bump In The Perineal Area Indicate?

Hello, I have a small soft flexible bump on my perineal area. Theres no itching or pain at all in that area. Oh and no burning pee. I did pick at it a little bit and it scabbed up. & I have no vaginal odor at all. Just got off a period four days ago. I realised the bump two days ago. Im freaking out and just want to get an idea of what the issue may be.

2.apply antibiotics like fusiderm ointment twice daily on the area for 7 days.
3.take analgesics like tablet diclofenac twice daily for 7 days if you have pain.
4.maintain good hygiene.
