This requires examination by either a surgeon or a dermatologist.Since there is a discharge chances of it gives a clue that it might have been infected.I would advise to get the consultation as soon as possible.
Hi, it appears to be the sebaceous cyst, at the root of the hair. it emits foul smelling discharge. I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. It may need to be incised and drained, then treated for infection, with antibiotics. Thank you.
