General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
This looks to be an infected sebaceous cyst or a lymph node.
Why on the earth you have kept this untreated till now.
This is the one causing so much distress.
Please show this to a Surgeon and get this operated for two reasons.
One - the disease is removed
Two- you get the perfect diagnosis.
I find this answer helpful
