Default severe motor 4 wheeler burn HELP!?

i've been to a friend's house for a birthday party, we went riding in his 4-wheeler and i got ATLEAST more than 5 seconds burn on the back of my ankle, i will have photos tomorrow of the burn but i wanted to know what to do, the burn happened friday afternoon, after a couple of minutes it began to bubble up of a liquid i believe which is infection, it looked yellow and it popped for some reason and again bubbled and popped.. i don't know what to do, i contacted my mom and she said to put polysporin on it, but it hurts as heelllllllllllllllll!!!! i can't even feel my leg(i can barely walk too) and it says the package, "do not put on severe burns" "do not put on very deep skin burn" is it considered a severe burn what should i do, should i go to the doctor to get it uninfected and get a prescription?

photos tomorrow of the burn about the size of my thumb but very deep
i didn't popped the blisters, they popped alone, i'm 13, and i cannot sleep with this pain but i putted a gauze and a cloth around it and putted some tape so it's like tied together, and the pain is gone away, maybe i exagarated abit on the can barely walk thing but it realy hurted. i'll tell my mom to make an appointment tomorow thank you.
