!! It could just be a type of boil - sometimes these happen just b/c
it's in a place that does't get a lot of ventilation, etc. Antibiotics
are usually prescribed.
You can always go to a clinic, for free or a small fee near a community
hospital. It's a long wait, but you wouldn't have to go to campus
clinic if that helps.
I would get it checked out though - just to relieve your mind.
