Suggest Treatment For A Pus Filled Bump On The Arm

I had a bump on my arm, a few months back when i squeezed it, some solid white kind of fluid came out of it. So i kept squeezing it untill there was no more. A small hole was left in my arm as a result. today i noticed that same kind of fluid was accumulating again in that hole. it doesn t hurt, but there s a lot of smell from that fluid
