Your dog needs to be examined by a veterinarian. They can assess the extent of the wound, clean it, and determine if any dead tissue or diseased tissue needs to be debrided (removal of dead or dying tissue to allow healthy tissue to start the healing process). Infected wounds need to be treated with antibiotics and your dog needs pain mediations to make him comfortable. This does not sound like mange--if your dog is itching and this is from self trauma it could be secondary to mange. Your veterinarian can test this dog for mange.

It sounds like your dog may have an abscess, i would recommend cleaning it with peroxide and using a warm wet compress to help the puss to drain and keep the wound open. Take your dog to the vet if you can but if not at least try to get some antibiotics like clindacure (available from your vet, quite inexpensive) Good luck

Well working with the description that you have given I would think that your dog may have gotten injured somehow, by a sharp object or maybe self inflicted wound. Furthermore this wound may have gone unnoticed that lead to the puss coming out meaning it has turned septic. Go and get your dog checked from the nearby dog vet and he may suggest a tube for the wound. Using this tube will cure the dog. If you delay going to the vet this injury may well increase turning into something much more serious.
