Hello,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. Most likely it is due to an infected or irritated hair follicle or a small cyst. since you are not sexually active, so there are no chances of a STD. Wear cotton undergarments, clean the area with savlon and do not pop it. Application of Neosporin cream and oral antiinflammatories like ibuprofen/acetaminophen are also helpful. Also avoid masturbation and intercourse till it is completely repaired.
Hope it helps you. Regards.
