Hi,

This suggest a boil/folliculitis, that need antibiotics and anti inflammatory agents for few days. I usually give amoxyclav and ibuprofen for 5 days. Your doctor will guide you.

Meanwhile, take ibuprofen or paracetamol for pain relief and avoid pressing/squeezing there.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
