When it opens, scrub with soap and water (I use Hibiclens), then dab it heavily with something cytotoxic, like Betadine. Get it really wet; you want to be sure you get the Betadine completely into the wound. Pat dry, then use antibiotic cream. Wear cotton (not a blend) underwear. It should clear up if you follow this regimen every day for 4-5 days.

Sounds like a cyst. You really need to see a doctor to have it treated, otherwise you're gonna go thru endless cycles like you've described with it bursting and healing over.
Next time it pops, put some antibiotic ointment on it. Might help in the short term - but again, you really need to see a doc.

Go see a doctor! There may be brief unpleasantness but look what you're living with now.
