Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some enlarged lymphnode vwith abscess formation. It can be due to reactive hyperplasia or tuberculosis. Or you may have sebaceous cyst or other benign cyst with infection. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
