Suggest Treatment For Lump On Thigh

I have a bump on my upper thigh and its red all around it and hurts to even touch. Recently i noticed that the redness an pain has moved up my leg into the joint in my leg and again all of this hurts to even slightly touch. I tried popping the bump on my leg thinking it might be an ingrown hair and green/yellow/clear pus came out. Im not sure what it is can anybody help!?

Hi
As per your description, it looks like Infection and associated inflammation.
I prescribe Antibiotic like Cefuroxime tablet along with Anti inflammatory tablet to my patients with similar complaints.
If the pus is Coming out,enlarge the opening for free passage of pus.
Please consult your doctor and get checked.
Nothing to worry.
It will come down.
Regards
