General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Cause and plan of Treatment-
In my opinion on the given data,you seem to have folliculitis,which has grown and is quiet painful.Er Surgeon would fix the diagnosis,when the CT contrast has failed once.
Plz check out with your ER Surgeon who would treat it accordingly.
So don't build up wrong concepts and self medicate your self which would increase risks and costs to you.
Instead just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
