Its under the skin not on top

Brief Answer:
Soft tissue infection most probably

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is difficult to comment and advise with just little history. No doctor can perfectly say about your disease without inspecting the lesion. So, my humble request is to consult the dermatologist personally.

Ok...
