Hi,
It seems that there might be having forming abscess producing this type of swelling and symptoms.
If you are diabetec then chance of having carbuncle is likely.
Continue with antibiotic medicine.
Take anti-inflammatory medicine like ibuprofen or Dicolphenec with paracetamol to get relief from pain.
Ok and take care.
