I've noticed this small hole in my skin, kind of looks like a needle prick. It's not red, but it feels tender to touch, and there's a bump under the skin. When I first saw it, the area was warm. There's no pus, but the bump feels pretty hard. It's not really painful, but it does hurt if I press on it. I'm a bit worried. Do you think this is something I should check out?

That could be insect bite or so..,no need to worry it will subside in a day,if it starts itching or becoming worse,visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate treatment,you dont attempt to scratch it or squeeze it.
