What Could A Lower Abdominal Lump With Pus Be?

i have a dark spotted bump, grayish in color, close to my bikini line. it formed a few days after i had shaved that area. at first i thought it may have been an ingrown hair, but now im starting to worry a bit. it has the same feel to it as a deep forming pimple, the only difference is no top formed. i squeezed it anyway to deflate it and a thick puss came out of it, yellowish white in color. i cleaned the area and applied an ointment. the bump, along with the discoloration, is still there a month later. and yet again i have had to squeeze it to deflate it and elevate the pain. im not sure what it is now, i dont know if its an infected hair or what. can anyone give me an idea?
