I have a bump on my labia majora/groin area. I believe it's either an ingrown hair or pimple. What could it be and how can I treat it? There is no itching or pain.

I had a colonoscopy in November and everything was fine, but recently at the gym, something popped or tore just inside the sphincter, causing a clear, slimy fluid to come out 2 or 3 times a day for a week now.

My blood work results show GFR 57, Potassium 5.5, Creatinine 1.08, MPV 7.1, WBC 11.7, RBC 3.8, Absolute Lymphocyte 3.6, Absolute monocyte 0.9, and I have symptoms like excessive sweating/hot flashes, easy bruising, significant leg and feet cramps multiple times a day, flank pain, and blood in my urine.

I have a small pimple on the head of my penis. It appeared 2 days ago and I haven't used any medication for it, just soap. I haven't seen a dermatologist about it and I'm in remission for leukemia. Can this be a normal thing, and what should I do about it?
