Hello,
Thanks for the query.
You might have developed furuncle.
These are deep bacterial infections.
Treatment is with antibiotics.
The hardness can be due to accumulation of pus.
A photograph would have helped in diagnosing better.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
