Suggest Treatment For Itchy Black Sore In Inner Thigh

Hi, tonight i itched my inner thigh and it hurt. When i looked at it it was a black sore with red around it and an indent in the middle. Now my right side of my lower back is aching and i feel nauseous. Could this be a bug bite? (It wasn t there all day.it was all of a sudden.)

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms can be related to a bug bite.
I suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily.
I also suggest using a antibacterial soap to clean the area and cover it with an antibiotic cream such as Neosporin cream.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
