HI
Well come to HCM
The lesion that you have may be infected and this need to be treated accordingly if I would be your Doctor then I would treat this lesion with the following medicines 1) Tab Ibuprofen 200 mg three times in day 2) Tab Amoxicillin with Clavulanic acid twice in day, do not try to pull the lesion for the local application you can try Povidone ointment, take care.
I find this answer helpful
