What Does A Lump In Pubic Area Indicate?

Hi Dr, for the past few months i have a kidney bean size lump on my pubic hair area. Previously i have tried poking it out by creating small holes on it and instead of pus its thick dark blood (and slight smell) oozing. The lump became smaller after that but it didnt go away. And yesterday i went to try pressing it out but nothing came out and now the lump became reddish and painful. Please advise how can i remove that lump. Its starting to worry me. Thanks!

it is a benign epidermal cyst or sebaceous cyst that is prone to get infected frequently.

there is nothing to worry. a minor surgery is required to remove it.

kindly consult a general surgeon.

all the best!
