This wound--probably a cat fight abscess--needs to be examined by a veterinarian. They will make sure it is fully drained, flush it with an anti-bacterial rinse, then prescribe anti-biotics and pain medication. Your cat may need to wear an Elizabethan Collar for several days so she doesn't rub or scratch the wound.
You can clean it at home with cotton balls and warm water but this will not cure the infection.

Take her to the veterinarian right away. She needs the doctor to prescribe some antibiotics and something to make the cat comfortable for pain.. Peace
