A lady in my office had something similar & they treated her for MRSA. It took about a week & a half to clear up, but it finally has. I would go to a doctor, according to my research (my cosmo had an article in it about it that freaked me out); if not caught early it can more to different places, like your spine. It is possible fatal if it gets into your blood stream. I would strongly recommend seeing a doctor asap.
