Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having folliculitis and now developing abscess.
She might require proper drainage of pus with proper dressing.
Consult your doctor and go for proper removal of pus and dressing.
Sh might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days to clear induration and swelling.
Ok and take care.
