Suggest Treatment For Lump Near Vagina

m actually really scared...=[ Its over a year since i discovered this lump near my vagina, well it in the crease between my vagina and my thigh. It started as a small skin coloured lump and it just got bigger. Within the last month or so this lump has become red and today it has changed completely. It is now an actual whole in my skin, its bright red inside and is oozing a liquid a bit like puss. I'm sorry for being so graphic i'm just really scared and would like some answers.

Welcome to health care magic.

1.Lump with redness and discharge - possibility of infective cause, might be hair follicular infection.
2.In this case you may need to get a course of antibiotic to treat the process, if quite bigger in size - a small incision and drainage might be needed followed by antibiotic treatment.
3.Mean while as a remedy - do not scratch, press or disturb the area - it will only complicate.
4.Maintain local hygiene, clean with antiseptic liquid. Avoid cloths that cause friction in that area, try soft nature cloths for quick healing.
5.Get an appointment with your doctor, and let examined and needful treatment. Good luck.

Hope i have answered your query.
