See your doctor.: I can't tell from your question, whether you've already seen your doctor or what medicine you're taking. If you haven't already seen your doctor, you need to do so, to diagnose the cause of your soreness and drainage. If you've already been seen, you should follow up, for a possible change in medication or further testing.
