Swollen Bleeding Spot In The Waist. What Is It?

I had a relatively large spot on my waist. It looked more like a swelling that had gone red and become painful as of yesterday. I applied some turmeric to the swelling before sleeping, and when i woke up this morning it had popped and there was some amount of dry blood around it and on my shorts. I have cleaned it but now it has some sort of opening to it that sometimes releases a small amount of blood. What is this spot?

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for choosing H.C.M.Forum.
You had a large spot looks like a swelling on the waist. it became red and pain full, applied turmeric,there was dry blood around, and still oozing.
It appears to be a hematoma, and needs to be treated with antibiotics after irrigation.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
Try to avoid friction to it , don't try to handle it by own, to prevent superinfection.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

It does not seem reasonable or realistic to suggest some suitable solutions, with this inadequate information provided here...
Haematoma (Blood clot) / infected Sebaceous cyst / simple boil - it may be anything
Get yourself examined by a General Surgeon..

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
