Bump On Arm That Itches, Popped. Why Is It Growing? What Is The Pus?
About a week ago I had a bump on my arm that itched. I scratched it and it popped, I left it alone and the next day I woke up and notices it was larger. The following night I woke up with it hurting and it continued to get bigger. It scanned over and is beginning to go away. Two days ago I woke up with 2 more bumps on my arm and they are oozing greenish-yellow liquid. They look like deep circles, they were itching all day today and now they re beginning to hurt.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some thing poisonous bite giving rise to allergic rashes.
Now due to itching some infection took place resulting pus formation.
Go for antibiotic medicine course for 3 days.
Apply antibiotic cream after proper cleaning.
Take some antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for itching.
Ok and take care.
