Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne on face causing pain and filled with pus symptoms you mention shows severe infection known as cystic acne. Need not to worry.
I would suggest you to :-

Consult dermatologist once and get yourself examined completely.

Doctor may prescribe antibiotic like minocycline 50 mg daily in morning and isotretinoin capsule .

He/she may prescribe clindamycine gel for applying twice daily or retinoid gel .

Start using benzoyl peroxide face wash and give cold compresses .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
