How To Treat Nickel Sized Lump That Is Between Labia Majora And Thigh?
I had a nickel sized lump grow between my labia majora and my thigh about two days ago. When I squeeze it pus comes out but not all of it. There is a mass that is too hard to fit through the tiny hole that the liquid pus comes out of. How do I get the rest out? Can this be a serious problem?

not to worry much as it is cyst that has been infected and it is prone to get infected repeatedly!
it is a sebaceous cyst and in worse case should be removed by minor surgery to get complete relief!
to start with should should apply some local antibiotic solution or take oral antibiotics!
all the best!
