Suggest Treatment For Itchy Red Sores On The Hip

I have a red lesion on my hip, starts as what looks like an insect bite and itches, soon gets larger like a hive and has tiny spots of yellow pus. It slowly gets larger to an inch or two then dries up and disappears after a few weeks. I have had this maybe three times over 15 years always in the same area and thought it was stress induced. Any clues?
