Hello and welcome to HCM,
Pus filled spots on the belly suggest infection.
The pus filled bumps on waist could be due to folliculitis (infection of hair follicles), boils (skin infection) or infected cyst.
You need to consult your doctor for clinical assessment.
Antibiotic and/or topical antiseptic ointment may be required for the treatment.
Thanks and take care
