welcome to Health care magic.
1.It seems like there is an infection in the same site due to bad healing / re infection.
2.In this case you need to see your doctor - a small incision and drainage of the infected pus and cleaning the wound with antiseptic liquids will help in healing.
3.mean wile you can give hime some pain killer medication.
4.Maintain local hygiene inorder to avoid re-infection.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
