Lump Under The Testicles, Crease Of Inner Thigh, Pubic Area. Had A Shave In The Pubic Area. Any Thoughts ?

hi, i recently shaved my pubic hair which i normally do twice a week. a day went by and i noticed a lump under my testicles about the size of a nickel. and if i try to put any pressure on it, it hurts. and there is no discharge . then i noticed another lump but it is in the crease of my inner thigh, waistline, pubic area and it basically feels like a small jelly bean under my skin. i have no idea what is going on. any thoughts?

Hi thanks for your question

The lump which your mentioning under your testis, could be due to injury while shaving, which has got infected, that is why it hurts by putting pressure over it.
The 2nd lump which your mentioning in the crease of your thigh, is most probably an enlarged lymph node (lymph nodes are normally present there)
The lymph node gets enlarged, if there is infection in the vicinity of the lymph node.
You need a course of antibiotic like leofloxcin for a week.
Consultation with physician is encouraged to know what exactly it is?

Hope I answered your question.
