What Does A Sore On The Thigh Indicate?

Hi, I’ve got a sore on my thigh that has been there for a few weeks, I cannot remember I how got it and it isn’t going away. This morning there is some swelling around the area and it has been very pussy for the past few days. I’m not sure what it is.

The sore can be result of trauma or as a result of insect bite. The sore is likely to be infected too. You need to follow up with your primary care provider to confirm the diagnosis and getting started on antibiotics.
