Suggest Treatment For Wound After Removal Of Chest Tube

hey i just had my chesttube sto removed on friday.
the nurse noted a slight "hole" in the middle and use small stripes to "close the wound". it was bandage.
Today i noticed "pus-coloured water on the bandage" and it smells very bad.
When i remove it, i noticed it had pus coloured thing all over it.

A&E hospital immediately or wait for tomorrow.
Sidenote: i have no fever. there is no big patch of swelling.
