What Causes A Bad Odour From The Lump That Is Near The Testicles?

I had a zit like pimpi between my right testicle and my gooch kinda on the sack area but it acted like a normal zit release a mixture of puss and blood and it emptied out practically when i popped it. But it released an awful odor for a long time I've had it for 2 days now. I woke up this morning and found the skin on my inner thigh near my genitals peeling off. What's going on?

General Surgeon 's  Response
HI. This is an abscess you have opened.
The smell is characteristic of the bacteria and their byproducts. And this area harbors the bacteria known to produce really bad odor.
I would advise you to take a course of an antibiotic to get a permanent relief.
