Hello dear,welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.
This can't be left alone,as this will result in subsequent infection and pus collection.
We can remove this under local anesthesia through a minor OP procedure.
Kindly see your primary physician for the same without delay.
Hope you will find this answer useful.Thank you.
