====== Pus ====== Pus is an exudate, typically white-yellow, yellow, or yellow-brown, formed at the site of inflammation during bacterial or fungal infection. An accumulation of pus in an enclosed tissue space is known as an [[abscess]], whereas a visible collection of pus within or beneath the [[epidermis]] is known as a pustule, pimple, or spot. ---- [[Infection]]s in which [[pus]] is produced are known as [[pyogenic]].
