Brief Answer:
It seems to be an infection of hair follicle.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post and seeing the attached picture, it seems that you are having an infection of the hair follicle and it is a soft tissue swelling.

I would advice my patients an anti inflammatory like Ibuprofen twice daily after meals and an antacid like Omeprazole 40 mg.

An antibiotic skin cream containing Neomycin, Polymyxin B, Bacitracin and Zinc will help in controlling infection.
Keep the local area clean.

I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Thanks.
