Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a hard lump on my upper leg, right next to my inner thigh. It s light red and only hurts when I touch it, there is also a darker red line running across it. It also grew significantly over night. It looked like a mosquito bite yesterday, but now it is 3 times the size of a quarter. Is this a major health concern?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, chances of lymph node swelling is very likely and it may be due to infection some abscess formation may be there and for that it is better to get done the clinical test till then it can be managed with Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
