Hi ! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. From your description it seems to be an inflammatory swelling, which could be anything from cellulitis to a frank abscess. This needs a clinical examination, and so I would suggest you to report in the ER of the nearest hospital for appropriate management. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
