Suggest Treatment For Painful Lump In The Groin Area

default
Posted on Fri, 4 Aug 2017
Question: I have a lump in my groin area where my underwear rubs. My gyn thought it was a cyst and lanced it several weeks ago but it got no better. I saw her today and she said it looked like a sertoma at least I thought that is the word she used. She's sending me to a dermatologist. Did is misunderstand the word? I can't find any thing matching that word.
