Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The pus discharge can be secondary to infected wound. Consult a good general surgeon and get it treated. You need to get the pus drained. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole(if you are not allergic).
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
