Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Stomach

Hi, Yesterday I woke up with a small bump on my stomach just an inch below my breast. Today it seems bigger and more painful. It is very red. I squeezed it really hard and it seemed to change its shape, a small amount of puss came out but that has not happened since. It is about the size of a grape under the skin. What could this be?

You might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days.

Ok and take care.
