Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that you might have some poisonous bite on the part or some scratch due to minor injury without your notice.
Clean the part with antiseptic lotion and apply antibiotic cream.
If require go for one antibiotic medicine course like amoxicillin after consulting your doctor.
Ok and bye.
