Hi,
I think that it could be a superficial boil. I would suggest a course of antibiotics for 5 days, along with analgesics. If there is no regression in size of boil, I think that there will be requirement of pus drainage. Also, I would suggest to apply betadine ointment locally over the area.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
