hello
welcome to healthcare magic forum
you have break the infected lesion and eventually it spread to surrounding skin also
do not worry as it is in shealing stage
the lump you ffel is due to body 's inflammatory response to infection
it will take 7 days to heal
apply good antibiotic cream over it
i hope i answered your question
