[|Human|] I have a nickel sized lump on my right inner thigh, right on the hip flexor area/bone. I have had ingrown hairs in this area before but this does not act like an ingrown hair. it has gotten very large very quickly and is very painful. It is not inflammed but hurts alot.
[|AI|]  Hi ! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. Once any lump is painful, it has to be inflamed/secondarily infected. From your history of fast growth and very painful swelling, the diagnosis goes more in favor of an abscess. This has to be confirmed by a physical examination of the lump, and needs immediate attention of a surgeon. Therefore, I would advise you to report at the ER of a nearby hospital at the earliest possible to have it managed properly. Till then, you can have some anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
