Answers:
If you don't know what it is, it may be from a horse fly or similar nasty like a hornet or tic!.
Take a very close look at it!.If thee is anything black in the centre - remove it!.
If it is a Bee, it will still be complete with the barb - and probably poison sac when it stung you!. This needs to be removed!. With a wasp they leave nothing except the toxin, but horse fly bites can become infected enough to warrant medical attention!. Tics likewise can leave their heads under the skin if knocked off, and lead to local infection!.
I think what your body is doing is the best thing!. It's sending in white cells to contain the infection - and producing a yellow or clear pus to flush away the cause!. You can help by bathing with hot saline - as hot as you can comfortably bear, and keeping it lightly covered with a sterile dressing!. It must breathe - not a waterproof one!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

you could try baking soda and water that usually always helps but i'm not sure if it will since it's been in there a while i would go see your doctor if that doesn't work since it could get infected!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
