After An Incident At Work I Got A Third Degree

After an incident at work I got a third degree burn on my arm, I did not visit a doctor and instead decided to let it heal, the burn is now over 50% healed, however I started noticing about 5 days ago that whenever the scab gets wet and softens or if I put pressure on it, a cloudy liquid oozes out, so I have been putting pressure on the scab every night until all of the liquid is gone, only to do it again the next day, is this at all normal? There is no redness or swelling, fever or discoloration of the wound, is this something to be seriously concerned about?
