Over Weight, Scars, Purple Lumps. Taking Medication. Solution?
Hi, I am 15 years old and female. I'm overweight with scars on the inside of my thighs from boils when I was younger. Recently, two large, red/purple lumps have appeared on my inner thigh close to my privates. It's very painful and I do not want to have to take some kind of medication or tell my mother. I know losing weight will probably be involved at some point, but please give me some kind of solution.
