Hi there....
Thanks for the pic.
Appears to be some sort of secondarily infected cyst at first glance.
A more detailed history and information is required including details of your medical history, personal history etc to help make a proper assessment and offer a clear treatment path.
There is nothing to stress of worry about.
Should be easily sorted.
May need to be excised but this too is easily done under local anaesthesia in the clinic if at all required.
Don't know how accessible a Dermatologist 's Clinic is to you ... You can possibly consider an INSTANT Consultation or an ONLINE Consultation for best outcomes 🙏
Health Tips
Clean well with 🧼 🫧 n water and dab dry; do not squeeze or handle excessively and meet your Dermatologist at the earliest.
