If it us currently red ,swollen and painful, it is infected , most probably due to scratching that area.
If u r not allergic, u can take tab augmentin duo 625 mg twice a day for 5 says along with tab voltaflam twice a say for 2 days.
Kerp the area dry and open to air as far as possible, avoiding walking , maintaining your privacy.
U can apply onabet ointment locally if the is itching.
If no relief in 2 days, better to c a nearby docter
