Hi,
If there is no pain, tenderness, swelling or discharge at the wound site, this need not be worried. This might be a viral. Just take Acetaminophen for 3 days, take some rest and drink enough fluids. If not getting better in 3 days, you can evaluate further with your doctor.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
