Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Most likely you have a sebaceous cyst which has gotten infected. Due to infection pus has appeared what caused pain and swelling. As the pain is still present, it seems that the pus is still there. That is why I suggest you to consult a surgeon and have it incised. Otherwise it wont go away.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
