HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is really lump and having infection then this is not normal at all and care must be taken for this, infection need to be treated with antibiotic and pain inflammation should be managed with anti-inflammatory drugs but more important is to know the underlying cause of this lump so this can be well managed, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day.
