What Is A Burning Bump On Pubic Area Oozing White Pus Indicative Of?

Ive had a bump on my pubic area it exploded leaving a little white puss cap n the rest was blood now it has a tingly feeling when i touch it. It feels like a hair has grown right through the bump n it kinda burns when i walk because its in a tough area (inner thigh). Im guessing its genital warts but everytime ive had sex ive used a condom n ive been getting bumps on my buttocks long before i even had sex so im not sure if its herpes or a ingrown hair

Hi..
Thanks for the query..

A bump in pelvic area that oozed out pus and has a hair grown through it seems to be due to Ingrown hair and it occurs when a hair curls backwards towards the skin and in place of growing upwards it grows back into the skin..
Other causes can be hair follicle infection or folliculitis..
The symptoms that you are explaining does not look like genital warts or herpes..
I would however suggest you to consult a General Physician and get evaluated and he can do a thorough clinical examination and it seems mostly sufficient to confirm the cause..
You can be advised to clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply a combination of triple antibiotic ointment and steroid ointment over it..
You can be advised to take a short course of antibiotics..
Keep the area clean and dry..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
