Hi,
As per your query you have symptoms of bumps with pus on hips which is because of folliculitis that is infection of hair follicles, it could be due to systemic causes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist once and get it examined. Start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid touching or pricking bumps with hand or any sharp object. You should take anti inflammatory drugs like nimesulide daily till you get good result. You should take antibacterial cream / ointment 2% mupirocin can be applied twice daily.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
