Hello,
Thanks for the query.
She might have developed furuncle.
These are deep bacterial infections.
Ask her to do hot fomentation.
This will help in reducing pain.
Treatment is with antibiotics but the choice of antibiotics should be based on culture and sensitivity tests.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
