Hi, I ve taken the 8-panel with hiv early detection twice. First one at 4 weeks all negative and at 12 weeks all negative. But now I have a bump in my groin and it bursted. There was a clear substance coming from it. With all my test saying negative, what could it be?

Hi,Dear,Welcome with your query to HCM.
Studied your query in full depth of its details.Reviewed it in context of your health concerns.
Based On the facts, You mostly seem to suffer from-
?LGV as the discharge is clear.?or could be Soft Chancer / or chancroid with Bubo.Microscopic examination for LGV or H.Ducrey would fix the diagnosis.
Remedy would depend on the cause diagnosed by Second opinion from dermatologist and confirmed from lab test of the discharge smear.
USG study would help in assessing the extent of the lesion.
Treatment
If Chancroid-soft chancre-Tab Azithromycin/ Erythromycin/ and Rosoxacin-are the drugs of choice.
If LGV-Doxycycline /azithromycin/ Erythromycin.
Other supportive surgical and medical and dietary care is needed with this.
Second Opinion from Surgeon and dermatologist would fix the lacuneas in this blind second opinion which is more of academic suggestion,which cant replace physical assessment of your case.

Hope that ,This reply would help you to plan further treatment soon with your treating doctors.Best of Luck and early recovery.
Welcome any further query in this regard,which would be replied in next
session.
Good Day!!
