Suffering From Acne For A Year, Breaking Out

Im a 22 year old female, and i havent had a problem with acne in about a year, but for the last month my chin has been breaking out like crazy, and nothing is helping. Then today i felt this patch right under my lip that felt like extremely dry skin but actually looks like a cluster of tiny pimples almost on top of each other and it hurts!
