This could be a sign of a skin condition or infection. I recommend using a topical antibiotic ointment like Bacitracin or Neosporin on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can apply a small amount of hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and avoid picking at it. If the condition does not improve or worsens, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
