[|Human|] I have a lump on my inner thigh the size of a nipple. When I squeeze it, there is something inside like blood or pus. It is a bit annoying when I wear pants, the friction it creates. I have had similar and in the same location but never this size. I think its causef from chafing as I am 40 lbs overweight. Can u tell me what to do to make it go down until my dr appt in a week? I dont want to go to an ER...
[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor. 1. The history and location suggest the possible cause could be hair follicular infection with collection.2. Next possible cause could be subcutaneous infective abscess / collection.3. In the both cases in small and not compacted state a course of antibiotics will help in treatment.4. In case of complicated state a small incision and Chat Doctor. 5.Finally, till you get treated as a remedy - do not squeeze, press, scratch the lumps (in that way you will complicate), maintain local hygiene, clean with antiseptic liquid, avoid clothing that irritates that area - soft clothing suggested. Good luck. Hope I have answered your query,anything to ask do not hesitate to ask.http://doctor.ChatDoctor .com/doctors/
