I had a really big pimple and i think i popped it cause a lot of puss came out but, now its black on one side and red all around. what do i do?

See a doctor: Wash with warm soapy water, depending on where it is, soak in a warm bath. Redness suggests you should have a doctor look at it to evaluate for infection, although the pus draining out is a very good sign.
