Poor little Kuri. I can't be positive, but it sounds like she may have an abscess which is an infection usually resulting from a bite wound. Wash the wound gently with antibacterial soap and rinse it well. An antibiotic such as clindamycin will usually help these infections if the gentle washing does not clear it out. Generally a kitten her age should be eating kitten food. The milk may actually cause her tummy to get upset if she is not used to drinking it. Hope this helps.
