Hello -
It sounds as though there is a boil or abcess of some sort. This is actually not an ususual place for these things to develop. If you can apply warm, moist compresses on it, or sit in a warm bath (not hot) it may help the thing to drain and heal, but it may require a doctor to drain it or prescribe antibiotics in order for it to completely resolve.
I hope this is helpful. Good luck to you.
