Hi,
It is due to the bacterial infection which is persistent.
Do one thing maintain good cleanliness and hygiene.
Use some antiseptic soap for bathing. Never touch site frequently with hands. Take antibiotic coverage fully like Amoxicillin.
If symptoms continue then report to the emergency room for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
