Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having forming abscess.
There might be having swelling and induration giving pain.
Continue with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines.
Gradually it will be absorbed and he will be alright.
If pus formation is there inspite of medicine, drainage of pus might require with excision.
Ok and take care.
