Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a skin infection. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain. I also suggest to clean the area with hydrogen peroxide and cover it with Neosporin cream. If the symptoms continue, I suggest to see a surgeon for a drainage of the infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
