Hello dear,welcome o healthcare magic orum
Most probably you are suffering from a soft tissue infection.It need treatment with antibiotics and analgesics for a ew days.For such cases,I usually give anibiotics like amoxicillin+cloxcillin/amoxicillin+clavulonate for 5-7 days,along with anlgesics.
So,you kinddly see your doctor for correct diagnosis and treatment.
Hope this answeer will help you.
Wishing a faster cure.Thank you.
