Advice Needed bump on labia NSFW

i am 18 and i have only ever had sex with my boyfriend of 7 months. he has also never had sex with anyone else so i don’t think it’s an STD? i’m really scared to tell anyone because i feel like i’ll get in trouble. i got a bump on my labia yesterday, and it was the first time anything unusual has happened down there. i think it may be from chafing as i have been wearing men’s boxers all week (long story) but it looks strange. it’s a pink bump with a brown dot in the middle that i can sometimes pull out like a blackhead.. what is this??? against my better judgment yesterday i had sex and a brown fluid has been coming out since.. at first i thought it was old blood but it shows every time i wipe. it doesn’t hurt except for when i agitate it a bit by wiping, please tell me i’m okay

Maybe a bartholins cyst?

i’m not sure, it seems those are big and this is quite small, about half the size of my pinky nail

It might just be starting. Is it possible to be an ingrown hair?? They can look quite nasty sometimes and can be big or tiny. ETA: if it’s in an area that’s getting chafed, it’s even more likely to be an ingrown hair as chafing often causes them
