Welcome to Health care magic.

1.Your history suggest me that its a infective collection. Could be hair follicular infection ( carbuncle / furuncle ) Followed by Pilonidal cyst as next possible cause.
2.Its not advised to squeegee / compress the lesion / lump as it can complicate further.
3.At this stage i would recumbent to see your GP and let it get examined and a course of antibiotic might be helpful.
4.Bear in mind there are complicates like pilonidal sinuses, fistulous communication with recum an so on - so deal it careful and get rid of it.
5.Maintain local hygiene, wash the area with antiseptic liquid, do not disturb the lesion - that will help in fast healing. Good luck.

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
