Brief Answer:
Abcess formation needs to be excluded

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but it is important to exclude abscess formation. please send a photo of the lesion attached to the query as a report. In case you were not able to attach a photo then if abcess is present it will require a surgical incision and drainage of pus. if no abcess is present then I would recommend that you refer to your doctor for a prescription of avil and dexamethasone shoots every other day for one week. I hope you find this helpful. if you don’t have any other clarifications then please close the discussion..
