[|Human|] Boyfriend had a cyst drained in groin area couple years ago. Seems to still have an opening where they lanced and has occasional bouts of extreme pain in crease at top of leg and then drainage from the site. Would like to learn more so I can encourage him to seek treatment. Not finding good online resource as of yet.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have cyst in groin with bouts. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like infection, hematoma, buttock injury, colonial sinus or sebaceous gland inflammation. Low immunity also play role, so take multivitamin supplement to boost immunity and quick recovery. Consult then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order test like blood test to detect septicemia, physical examination to check tenderness and consistency, ultrasound and take sample for lab test in severe case. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like azithromycin at least for a week along with anti-inflammatory and corticosteroid ointment. Doctor may also recommend surgical excision in cases of benign tumor. I would suggest you to apply cold compresses, keep the site clean and Chat Doctor. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
