Sounds like an abscess that has burst or been opened and has drained itself of the pus that was inside. Abscesses are very common, most are due to MRSA (a particularly virulent staph. bacteria) and should be examined by a doctor to prevent the infection from worsening. If the abscess is large enough, it must be packed with sterile packing material as abscesses need to heal from the inside out, otherwise, the skin might heal and close over the top of the hole, leaving a pocket for the bacteria to grow into an abscess once again. Think of a bunch of grapes, and that's what it looks like under the skin. All those little pockets must be open and drained to avoid worsening infection.
