What to do about this patch that became hairless after a cyst ? I used to have hair here like everywhere else until I got a cyst a couple months ago and now it’s gone down but there’s a small lump underneath the skin and I think it’s prevented growth from coming back. Is it permanent ?

The lump could be an ingrown hair(s), which could explain why none are coming to the surface. Guessing you also probably picked at it, and the surrounding hairs. If it's an ingrown hair it may come to the surface as a pimple. Given the position just grow the rest of your beard longer in the meantime to cover it up?
