Lump Between Testicle And Thigh. Hole In Center Of Bump After Draining Pus And Blood. Worrisome
Hey I am a 17 year old male about 185 pounds, about a month ago I noticed a pea sized lump between my testicals and my inner thigh! I popped it and pus and blood have drained out of it and it got smaller but ever since then it has stayed the same size! There is a tiny hole in the center of it where the blood and puss drained from, it is red/purple ish.. Should I be worried?

hi dear, it might be a folliculitis. its good that pus has been drained.
definetly you need to be worried. in this area there are lot of bacterias and unless you take proper treatment the condition is going to worsen and it may even become a cellutitis.
please meet a dermatologist.
thank you
