What Causes Discoloration Of Abscess On The Upper Thigh?

I have a boil that isn t very big on my upper back thigh and it is red/ slightly purple and only hurts to the touch. It has popped and I squeezed all the white puss out. Is the discoloration due to sitting down for long periods of time or is it something serious?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the only matter of concern would be formation of pus, do not try to squeeze this because if this is done in induration period then it may jeopardize the condition, better to see the doctor for better management, hope this helps, take care and have a nice day.
