Blister On The Penis. Not Getting Healed. Pus Formation. Reason?

I had what was like a small pimple like thing on bottom side of penis . It was located by a v shaped pore. I popped it two years ago. It never really went away. It became like a hard tube in the shape of a c starting at the surface and goes deeper, maybe 3/8 of an in. A few days ago is was swollen and I tried to pop it again and puss came out of the pore which now like a pocket. Now its swollen up bad, little pain. Nothing comes out now and reminds me of a zip the is irritated and wont pop. What could the original cause be? and what might be going on now?

Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have scarring due to healed infected Sebaceous cyst over Penis.
The skin of this area is rich in sebaceous glands so more prone to develop Sebaceous Cysts due to accumulation of sebum beneath skin.
Normally no treatment is required a they fade away of their own.but need to be treated if get infected.
Consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical examination to confirm the diagnosis.
You may need to get it excised in Toto under local anaesthesia.
