Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
If the lump appears to be Like a boil with oozing blood and the peroxide burning the skin and is not healing means this may be due to the following reasons:
Carbuncle, a condition wherein the sebaceous getscinfected to give this typical appearance. Please get your diabetes checked.
Chronic skin lesions like granulomas.
Skin cancer.
I would advise you the following in such a situation.
Get blood tests done, particularly sugar.
Consult a General Surgeon for clinical evaluation, excision biopsy and proper antibiotic cover.
Proper dressings.
Further treatment as per biopsy reports and blood tests.
