the lump is build up sweat. whatever caused the hair to be ingrown also made it so that the sweat and other wastes could not leave that pore. if it stays built up like that it will cause the hardning of the wastes and make the lump.
it will hurt but you can squish the lump out. it will be fine but it will be sore for a little while. been there, done this. also, it probably won't smell so nice. so be prepared.
