It is not going to be either leprosy or herpes.

Could you have caught your arm on something- a bra wire, for example, and this is just it healing? Or it could be a spot you didn't notice and therefore didn't squeeze, that would have the sort of texture you describe as it was going. Xx

It's a bump but it's not raised? I am confused? Is it under the skin then? Does it move? Is it just 'white'?

Could be a cyst..

Can you post a pic? It won't be leporacy or herpes. It could be a wart - I get weird wart things on my skin. They can be easily removed by the doctor or a nurse. Please don't stress out, it won't be anything serious.
