hello,
welcome to healthcare magic.
i will be glad to be of assistance.
from your description you had a boil which is a bacterial infection of the skin.
however, its difficult to say without seeing it. however since the liquid has come out as you describe, it should settle down now.
you can apply fucidin cream on it twice a day for 5 days on it. that will be more effective.
regards
please let me know if you have any queries.
