@evillarreal Your family GP, or a walk-in doctor, should, perhaps, offer steroid creme to help speed healing. As for cleaning, you may be doing more harm than good. I would keep it as dry as possible, possibly only a barrier cream, but really just a gauze pad and tape over it. If it's not infected, you don't have fever or chills, night sweats, etc, it is probably not infected. So, keep it clean means don't go mud wrestling, avoid sweating, maybe just pat the area with a damp clean cloth when you have to bathe...that kind of thing.
I wish I had something in my bag o' tricks to suggest to you, but other than riding it out as suggested by the experts, I don't know how else to help you. I do hope you get some natural relief soon.
