Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The description does sound like you have either an injury or an allergic reaction to some product. It would be useful to know since how long it has been going on. The pus indicates that the wound could probably be infected.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
