Impetigo?: Not sure what you mean by tic. If you mean tiny incision maybe. The yellow sac lends itself to incision to speed healing; a hard bump does not. It also depends on the size of the bump, pimple, boil or abscess. Usually caused by common bacteria, little ones usually heal themselves. Big ones usually need help. Ask for a medical visit if the hard red area is big or spreads. Ask for a clean mattress.
