Worthy of inspection by your doc! Could be a simple cold sore, but potential to be cellulitis.

A pharmacist may recognise it, but will probably advise seeing a GP if he/she suspects infection. Have you tried to get an appointment with the doc? Did the receptionist say there are no appointments? You could say that you may have cellulitis and have been advised to seek urgent medical attention.
