Sore Area, Bloody Yellow Pus Oozed Out. Using Peroxide And Neosporin. What Is It?
I have a sore that looked like an insect or spider bite , i ve been icing it and then using some hot compresses. Some thick yellow/blood pus has come out in the last 24 hours. I m cleaning with peroxide and neosporin , it s still sore and red. It s a hard round circle about the size of a dollar coin. Is this a skin/staph infection?

you had an infected ulcer may be due to infected insect bite.The are is red indicates inflammation process is on.a pus is also discharging.
t think you need Cleaning of wound with dressing.Don't use peroxide now that will burn the tissue now.
you alos need mild antibiotics & anti inflammatory medicines.Thanks.
