Hello thanks for the advice but it never hurt until now it kind of got swollen right on the area I've been meaning to go to the doctor but end up just getting kind of scared to know what it is:/

Hi!
Difficult to say what it was—may be an infected cyst or a boil or tuberculosis of lymph node or a fistula. If it has healed and you do not have any problem then it’s probably ok. If the scar itches, become red or warm or bleeds, please consult a doctor immediately. Take care!

The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
