Sounds like a draining sinus of an abscess. If the tooth with the abscess was extracted, then this pimple should disappear and not return. If it does return, it could be related to one of the adjacent teeth that is also carious.

You will need a clinical examination by a dentist. Not a lot we can say without any photos or x-rays.
