    Hi you probably will need to see a doctor it looks like a boil to me or infection you may need antibiotics for this. have you been rundown or sick lately?

      OK it looks quite inflamed and sore I'd have it checked you wouldn't want it getting worse in that area 😳

      Are there any chances of it going away all on its own ? if i apply a warm compress onto it?

      Yeah it possibly could but it could also get worse. I would try the warm water and I'd add some salt to it. but I would contact you doctor even if it's only a phone call for advice.

    It does appear to be a boil. Apply a warm compress a few times a day, 5-10 mins. You can see your primary healthcare provider to see if they want to start an antibiotic or continue to monitor for worsening redness, pain, etc. Refrain from squeezing it or masturbating.

      A warm compress will help expedite the healing process, as heat can increase circulation and dilate the pores to help that drain.

      i did apply warm compress and yesterday it just oozed out yellow-white liquid out with some blood. I removed how much ever i could then cleaned it with warm water and covered the would with clean towel. And now it looks like this.
