What Causes Lump With Pus?

Hi, I'm 16 years old, and roughly 2 years ago I fell off my bike, I got a rather large cut on my leg, 2 days later I had this lump form about 2 centimeters away from the cut, at first I thought it was a rock lodged under the skin, but then about 2 weeks after that I squeezed the lump and a lot , about a teaspoon, of fairly hard thick white cream cheese looking stuff come out of the lump... And I thought that would be the end of it, but no it stayed! Ever couple of weeks I can squeeze more of the white stuff out of it. There's no blood, it's numb, I don't feel any pain, and I don't know what it is, oh, and it's like open, it doesn't scab over, and the skin hasn't grown over it , nothing, its just there, and the white stuff does not smell... Any help?

Hi,DEAR,Good Evening,Thanks for the query.I studied it in details and understood your health concerns regarding it.
Lump caused on the leg-at the trauma site-is Chronic Abscess in the Hematoma after the trauma to leg 2yrs back.
Treatement is by -proper surgical drainage with scraping of the chronic abscess wall,after adequate incision and would heal by scar over 2 wks time.
Hope this would help you to plan the treatment with your doctor.
