General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

If I were your doctor, I would advise you against leaning on the table with your elbow which might aggravate your symptoms. Pus anywhere have to be evacuated. same is the case here and so you should report to your family physician or to the ER of your nearest hospital for a proper drainage and further management of the primary problem.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
