hi,
you must have had infection of acne, or of hair follicle. pus is coming because of severe infection. firstly wash the area properly with soap. if pain is too much , take oral pain killer, antibiotics. keep the area very clean regularly, as you have acne regularly, to prevent infection. check your diabetes status and hemoglobin levels.

wish you good health.

Welcome to HCM.
It looks to be folliculitis occurs due to hair route infection.
It occurs usually due to scratching after severe perspiration,improper hygiene.
You have to take antibiotic like amoxy/clavulinic 625 to subside infection and nsaid to subside pain,inflammation.
Take proper local care,clean it with antiseptic liquid and apply antiseptic cream.
Get examined by your doctor and start proper treatment.
