Should I Consult A Doctor As I Popped A Pimple On My Genital Area?
I popped what I thought was a pimple on my gential area by squeezing it and it grown quite large to near the size of a Nickel and raised up much more. It s been painful, almost like I got kicked in the testicles. It s late at night so I can t really see a doctor today, can I assume it d be fine over night and/or wether I need an immediate doctor visits in the morning?

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
A boil if squeezed even before pus points then can cause severe pain and inflammation leading to increase in the size and spread of infection.
So, please use any anti-inflammatory + pain killer with local antibiotic cream for relief.
You can visit your doctor whenever you are free, as it is not an emergency. All the best.
