Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day
If abscess has formed its advisable to drain it. Squeezing will let out the pus. It will do no harm. I would also suggest you to consult Pediatric Surgeon for adequate drainage of pus.
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
