General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
As per your description, it is most likely a boil or cellulitis. It could also be cyst,hematoma etc.
You must take antibiotics ( cephalosporins preferred) with analgesics and antiinflammatory to get rid off that.
Don't apply neosporin or bandage because it has no role rather you take antibiotics orally and after treatment it might burst out leading to pus drainage or blood drainage.You wash them with savlon and water.
Only 3 days course of antibiotics Would be sufficient.
Consult surgeon for further advise.
