Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic
I am Dr. Kakkar. I have gone through your concern and I have understood it.
I would like to keep a possibility of bacterial infection of the hair follicle, Furuncle.
If I was the treating doctor I would have also advised you an oral antibiotic for a week OR 10 days (My choice of oral antibiotic would have been Amoxycillin 500mg in combination with clavulanic acid 125 mg, thrice daily, for a week OR Cephalexin 500ng thrice daily OR Cefadroxil 500mg twice daily, for a week). That would take care of the infection.
Topically you could use 2% mupirocin ointment as well, twice daily for a week. It is available OTC
An OTC painkiller once or twice daily would help you deal symptomatically with the pain.
regards
