Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that there has been infection in the area of injury and that is leading to formation of pus filled bumps..

In case if you have got scraped and exposed to dust, soil ad rust the first thing that you need to do is to get a Tetanus Toxoid injection..

You should consult a general physician and get evaluated and he can advise you oral antibiotics like Augmentin or Ciprofoxacin, a combination of Sulphamethoxazole and trimethoprim can also be advised..
You can also be advised to clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply a combination of antiseptic and steroid based creams..
If the infection seems severe then injectable antibiotics can also be advised..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
