[|Human|] Its kind of embarrassing, but I have a big, red, swollen bump in my crotch area. It is very painful if light pressure is applied to it. The hair follicles dont seem to be swollen around the area, but two pores seem to be and they kind of merge to form a big bump. It has no signs of pus and Im currently been on accutane for about 5 months for acne. Im afraid it might be staph. Please help me.
