More info please: More details would be very helpful to try to figure out your question. You could have any number of inflammatory conditions such as allergy, infection, or a large number of alternative conditions that cause pain. Symptoms like these deserve a full evaluation in person by your health care provider.

Mild infection?: Skin should not be tender or painful. Is this related to infection of your hair follicles (folliculitis)?
