Hi,
If it causes soreness or pain then it can be boil or cellulitis or local tissue infection.
You may take antibiotics ( cephalosporins preferred),antifungal single dose and analgesics for 3 days minimum course.
You can consult general surgeon because clinical examination is mandatory in this case.
Don't worry you will be alright.
Thanks
