Regards Lybrate user. Swelling after injury is common, and is a way how the body tries to heal. However, pus is not normal. If you find pus oozing out from the swollen area, it is definitely recommended to consult a physician, to have it treated as soon as possible. Infections have potential to spread and during injury, infectious foreign material may enter our body through any open wound. It is important to get it tested and treated as soon as possible.
