A doctor has provided 1 answer

What you are describing is an inflamed area not an abscess. An abscess is a collection of pus that would either come out or have to be drained. Keep the area clean. You may apply warm fomentation. If you get fever or the involved area doubles in size, see a doctor. Wish you good health!
