General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

i agree with your physician. the inflammation will eventually subside. if in case it's fluid filled and it burst, just let it be. just keep the area clean and dry so it doesn't get infected. it will be healed in 1-2 weeks time. a follow-up with your doctor is also recommended.

hope this helps.

good day!!
