General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a furuncle which is an infection of the hair follicle. I recommend to use an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream. I also suggest to maintain a good hygiene and use cotton underwear.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
