about 3 days ago my foreskin started to swell after sex with my partner, i have had this happen 2 or 3 times before, but this time it swelled up so much that a hole probably about .25cm across appeared (it was not there and about an hour later I went to the toilet and it was) which has had white and clear pus coming out since and it does not stop. I drained alot of the pus by hand but I cannot get it all out, but since I done that the swelling has gone down a bit. It is swollen to the point where I cannot bring my foreskin down over the head of my penis.
Anyone know what creams should help the swelling? ive been using dettol antibacterial cream and also I would really like to know if there is a way to stop the pus, I have put multiple bandaids over it but they get saturated in about an hour.

See your doctor, ASAP. Not being able to retract the foreskin is a medical emergency. The blood flow can be compromised, leading to scarring or loss of tissue.
It could be a sebaceous cyst that ruptured. We can't tell.
Hope it helps.

the other 2-3 times it has happened i also have not been able to retract my foreskin over my head, the pus is coming from the side rather than the top. the pain has died down alot now its just kind of like a stingy pain.. the skin where it is swollen is dry, and the swelling is, for the majority, on one side. I can also still get erections, I was thinking about going to the doctors if it isnt much better in the next 2 days or so.

also, as far as I can tell its not a sebaceous cyst, the pus substance is complete liquid, and it started coming out by itself I had no choice in the skin opening, and by side i mean near the top but on the side...

Did you notice any swelling before this pus came out?
If it is pus, then there is an infection. That's what pus is, white blood cells and bacteria.
Do get it checked.

ok thanks:) yes, the swelling was there before the pus, it was very swollen before the the pus came out.
Once i squeezed alot of pus out the swelling went down about 15-20% i reckon.

Something I forgot, when the hole first appeared it looked kind of like a mini blister, but when pushed on felt like a hole, the area around it was red and looked more raw I guess, the pus that is coming out is only from the raw red looking area. and the swelling was at its peak until pus started coming out, the hole is also where my foreskin was swollen the most.
Could it be that my body has made this so that it can get rid of the swelling quicker due to how swollen it was?

Yes, it could be your bodies way of relieving the infection.
See a doctor though please!
