Painful Lump, Bloody Discharge From Groin Area Next To Scrotum. Emergency?
Question: Painful lump with bloody discharge in groin area next to scrotum for 4 days. Do I need urgent attention for this?
Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have developed Staphylococcal infection of a hair follicle ( Boil) in groin.
However this can be confirmed only on clinical examination by a qualified General Surgeon.
Please consult qualified surgeon for clinical evaluation .
He may advise you to take antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medicines like Diclofenac twice daily for a week.
If it does not subside after taking these drugs.it may need to be incised and drained.
Hope I have answered your query.
Please feel free to ask if you have any more questions I shall be happy to help you.
Thanks with Regards.
