Hi! this is a very common clinical situation that we see almost everyday and nothing to worry about this as this is just an inclusion cyst or sebaceous cyst!
Yes, it becomes painful when it is inflamed, rubbed, scratched or poked; therefore, avoid these but go for a needle biopsy for confirmation and to relieve your tension!
And see a surgeon regarding opinions about line of management.
