Pus Filled Blister In The Ear. What Is It?

after taking a shower i felt my right ear sensitive with a little tap. Then I looked in the mirror and saw what looked like a blister full of pus the size of a pea. I popped it and a lot of puss came out, and started to sting. the next morning I woke up with a crust there. Every time I clean it with hydrogen poroxide it still develops puss. What can it be, how was it caused and what can I do to cure it since it is very uncomfortable with any little touch.

Hello,
On the ear the infections are very painful.
And If the infection spreads the cartilage may get destroyed and will damage the skin too.
then only plastic surgery will help.
It will be better if you see an ENT specialist and start with antibiotics and get puss culture sensitivity to know the organism and so a proper antibiotics are given.You also need daily dressing of the ear.
Do not sleep on the side of infected ear , and do change the pillow every day.
