huge zit like bump

Question:
I still don't know if I have herpes (I can't get tested until next week). For the last few days I noticed a bump just below my wasteline (but not quite in the pubic hair region) gradually getting bigger and bigger. It first looked like an ingrown hair follecule, but there was no hair growing out of it. It kept getting bigger and bigger (like a HUGE zit), was surrounded by redness, and started to look a little yellowish or skin color. It was grayish a few days before that. Well, as of last night, it must have opened up (or popped) because I found a little bit of yellowish fluid in my underwear right where it was...and it's alot smaller. It is now a white color, with redness all around it, and is almost like a cut. I have to push down on my skin for the cut part to actually be present. Is this an open sore?? It still has kind of like liquid stuff coming out. Also, this was very painful while it looked like a zit, but it is now less painful now that it looks like this. Please help. Thanks

Answer:
It could just be a zit. If you're concerned, go to the doctor and ask for a swab test.

Answer:
now it's completely open...red around it, and red inside....what does this sound like?

Answer:
No idea... but it doesn't sound nice. I would get to a doctor ASAP! Treatment is better sooner than later, no matter what it is.
