Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

I suggest you to take a course of antibiotic under your doctor's suggestion. An antibiotic course is must as it is almost 3 weeks since the bump appeared.

Take a pain killer along with the course of antibiotic. Do not try to touch or scratch the area.

All the best.
