Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The oozing out of pus from the anus is likely to be due to an infection in the area. It is more likely to be a superficial skin infection or folliculitis. A direct examination is needed for proper diagnosis. Oral antibiotics will help in early improvement.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
