What Lead To Pus Filled Pimple Between My Breasts?

Hi, I noticed this blackhead pimple like thing in between my breast for a while and my OB seen it and thought it was a clogged pore but couldn't get it out. She was going to refer me to a derm but didn't. Two days ago I noticed it popped while showering and now I have pus constantly pouring out. No blood and it hurts to lay on the side and I just wanna know what this could be.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely a furuncle.It is an infection of a hair follicle. I usually treat my patients with draining pus and dressings with glycerine magsulf and betadine. Antibiotics also i give for some cases.Keeping the wound by proper dressings will help it heal faster. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
