Stubborn boil on bikini line?

So about a week ago I noticed a purple looking bump on my bikini line and I ran my finger over it and all of a sudden it popped with puss coming out so i assumed it was a boil but strange enough it didnt hurt at all. I squeezed out all the puss i could and put a bandaid on it and figured it would heal on its own. Last night i noticed it hadnt gone away but still didnt hurt so i was messing around with it and it happen to pop again but with not as much puss this time. It still doesnt hurt at all but why isnt it healing on its own? Should i go to the dr to get antibioitics to help it heal? Or go to the dr to have it fully drained? Any suggestions would help! I have had two boils in the past in different areas and both healed on their own.

    Go to the doctor. You never know if it might be infected.
