Strange Bump on Leg?

I woke up this morning to my calf stinging. At this time, there was a small bump, in the shape of an oval, about the height of a mosquito bite. A few hours later, now, this bump is outlined with several millimeters of a puss-like substance. It looks like there is a line of glue from a hot glue gun on top of it. What is this and what do i do to get rid of it!?

    It appears to be a superficial skin infection due to some kind of insect bite or similar trauma. You may want to apply an antibiotic ointment such as bacitracin. I wouldn't touch the area except to clean it. If the affected area enlarges in diameter, if there is pain or red streaking, seek medical help promptly because you may need an oral antibiotic.

    micro organism turning out to be on the moist lifeless dermis on your razor has contaminated your legs. Wash them with antibacterial cleansing soap and dab them with 3% hydrogen peroxide. replace the blade on your razor extra usually, flush it in warm, working water once you employ it everytime, and placed it someplace the place it could dry out thoroughly everytime.
