Brief Answer:
Furuncle

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and viewed the image.

It seems like a furuncle which is a skin and soft tissue infection. I suggest you to use a topical antibiotic e.g either Neosporin ointment or Mupirocin 2% ointment, twice daily. In addition I suggest you to do hot compresses locally 2-3 times a day.

Hope I have answered your query..Let me know if you need any more assistance.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
