I cannot recommend Tea Tree cream enough for wounds like this as it works as an astringent and an antiseptic, so both drying out the wound and protecting it from infection.
My travel first aid kit always contains arnica cream for bumps and bruising and tea tree cream for cuts and grazes.

My father is quite a devotee to Tea Tree oil/cream. He's become almost evangelical in spreading the news about it's healing powers.

I used to sterilise a needle in steam from the kettle, sit on the edge of the loo and, using (depending on position of pustule) shaving mirror, insert and then squeeze. I understand that medical advice contra-indicates this. But it always worked.

It is also an excellent way of discovering that you should take up yoga and need bifocals.
