Red Spot In Gooch, Hurts When Touched. Any Idea?
I have a red/brown spot in the gooch. I ve had it for as long as I can remember, but lately I ve started picking at it. This made it go red and now hurts when I rub it on clothes or touch it. I m pretty worried about it. Also, it doesn t feel like a lump or a pimple , it feels sort of like its a part of the body, i can t pull it out or push it in. I would really appreciate it if you have any idea what it is. Thank you
