I’ve had this happen, your skin is attempting to rebuild its self. It may turn to a keloid once fully healed.

Try raw cabbage on the skin to draw it out and sooth inflammation if it's too painful to bare. Try peroxide. Then cover with petroleum jelly. Since I have stopped eating greasy foods like pizza, fried foods, greasy fast foods. I've been doing a lot better.
