Suggest Treatment For Lumps Appearing On The Chest

I'm a 21 year old male and ive been getting large swollen and painful bumps on my chest. They act and look like large pimples, in that when I try to pop them (they are painful enough that I at least have go try) I can get a little pus and blood out. What worries me is that I've gotten three in the last week and they are getting progressively higher on my chest. The first one appeared just above my nipple and the latest one is up near my collar bone. I am also getting about a dozen small red bumps that are not pus filled or swollen but in relation to the big ones, theyve got me worried. What should I do and what could they be?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some inflammatory lesion or abscess formation. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. If needed go for culture and sensitivity test of pus. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
