Recurring scabs/sores

Question

Asked for Female, 16 Years

Last month I descovered a small sore on my right but cheek. It was a dark red color but there was no blood only pus. I immediately put some peroxide on it and I started bubbling right away and then I put polysporn on it and covered it with a bandaid. The wound started scabbing so I though it maybe was just a pimple that got infected but then the scab grew and grew like wider and eventually it started to flake off the scab and left me with a big scar. 2 days later again it happened. And now again
