Hi
Infection presents as swelling, redness, pain. It could be hot. You may see soreness. Usually the skin infection i s called cellulites which is very obvious.
If it is infection it will get better in seven days. It does not look like infection for me.
You can get X Ray of neck and see if there is any thing abnormal.
Bye
