You need an incision and drainage surgery. .. please don't delay ... The last part to get affected is the skin. So it will appear like you are fine till the skin gets infected! But by that time the pus would have damaged the whole soft tissue below the skin.. consult a hand surgeon and get operated soon.. it will not come again and again too!
