Thank you for choosing HCM

There is a chance that this is a boil or a cyst. This happens when you have a sweat pore or some other pore that gets blocked. This will cause you to build up tension inside the cyst and start getting infected which causes the pain.

You should see a Surgeon as soon as possible so that you can get treated for this. All the best.

Hope this helps you
