A cyst hurts, cancer doesnt. either way go have it checked put your mind at rest
All the best

Sounds like a spot to me. Very common in that area. A warm usually moist place is a breeding ground for bacteria. Shave the area and take a good look. Could well be an ingrowing hair causing irritation. But, if you are worried, go to the docs when you can.
In my experience, I have never seen cancer start off as a spot there.

Its a cyst, you can get them in the worst of ares but cancer lumps don't generally hurt where as cysts get sore so try not to touch it and make an appointment whenever possible to see your gp.........its xmas so don't be worrying, something deep down would tell you it was major!

Cancer very rarely hurts in the way you describe, so you'll probably be fine until after Xmas. Do make an appointment to see the doctor if its still there;

Doesn't sound like anything serious. As someone said, it sounds like an infection of a hair follicle, or a boil.

it could be a cyst which are very painful and not nice at all, chances are in been caused by a ingrown hair, see how you go and go see the doc when you can,

Most likely just a cyst but go get it checked ASAP.
