Inflammation: This is an area of inflammation which may be due to a bacterial or viral infection. Infections in this area of the body are potentially very dangerous and must be diagnosed and treated promptly. In view of the swelling and tenderness, I recommend being examined in the hospital emergency room as soon as possible.
