How To Treat A Cyst Like Bump Behind The Ear?

I have a cyst like bump behind my right ear. I have been treated 5 times since May for it. One ER doctor opened it up and it just has gotten worse. I fills with fluid and I can lightly press on it and pus and blood drain from it. My son saw an ENT and I told him about it and he looked at it. He said it was a fistula. What do I do for this?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say that if this is pure form of fistula then this need to be surgically repaired and this is the only option you have and in my opinion you better have a word with your doctor if possible then go for second opinion, take care and have a nice day.
