Detailed Answer:
Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns.
For how long its been there? Any swelling? Send me the picture of it so that it can be accurately identified.
Based upon history, it may appear to be cyst which get infected or skin infection ( cellulitis) . You really need to be examined for proper diagnosis.
You may require antibiotics from penicillin group along with painkillers for five days. It will help in healing.
Meanwhile stay calm and send me the picture of it.
Hope it helps
