Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pus discharge could be because of the tooth infection like periapical abscess formation with a pus discharging sinus tract or from infecction of the bone.
Consult a oral physician and take a radiograph like RVG, OPG to rule out the above mentioned conditions.
If it is a tooth infection or bone infection then You can take a course of antibiotics and analgesics like amoxicillin 500mg and metronidazole 400mg tid for 5 days(if you are not allergic). After taking antibiotics you can get the tooth treated with RCT(if bone support is fine) for tooth infection.
If it is bone infection then you have to go for currettage or sauserization of the bone along with antibiotic course.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
