Brief Answer:
Abscess or pus collection. Needs immediate draining
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Thanks for the query.
How long have you had this problem ?
Have you sustained trauma ?
Is there a red, painful swelling ?
This appears to be an abscess or pus that is draining from a point in your skin.
It is best to get it seen by a Surgeon who will examine it and drain it properly and then start you on antibiotics to prevent a systemic infection in the blood.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Dr. Aashish Raghu
