Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM
I have gone through your query.
It is difficult to say what it is without examination, kindly upload the picture to assess and to provide you with specific advise.
I would suggest you not to scratch or pop it to avoid any infection. As you have suggested it is recurring, I would have asked for random blood sugar(RBS), complete blood count(CBC), and culture of the discharge.
I would have waited for the report and then would have decided on the treatment. I would also suggest you not to take any antibiotic without consulting.
Hope this helps.
I'll be glad to help you out with further query.
Take care.
