What Does A Painful Bump On The Chin Indicate?

About 5 months ago, I had what I thought was a pimple on my chin. It has not healed despite quite a few OTC & prescription treatments. Now, it’s thicker, raised & slightly painful to the touch. I’ve had acne like “breakouts” surrounding the area on/off. About a month ago, I noticed intermittent numbness to my chin & frequent left sided eye twitching. Any thoughts on the next step/treatment?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Take proper antibiotic such as tablet Roxithromycin two times a day and tablet Aceclofenac two times a day.

As these are prescription drugs, so please contact your local doctor so that he will prescribe these medicines.

These swelling and twitching problems will resolve when the bump will be cured as the bump is causing other symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi
