Bump On Upper Inner Thigh, Dark Blue Discolouration, Bright Red Bleeding. Causes?
have a spot on my upper inner thigh. It started out as a bump then it started hurting worse and got painful i noticed that it was a dark blue color. Also when you feel it you can feel a hard lump. It s currently leaking bright red blood because it was rubbed open by my clothing because of where it is and now it is a hole. It is still raised and i can still feel the lump i mentioned earlier. Any ideas as to what it could be?

Hi there ~
I am sorry you are having trouble with the bump on your upper inner thigh. If you are sexually active please get yourself tested for STDs. I would say that the bump is just an infection and it should subside with antibiotics. If it is large enough it might need to be drained by a qualified surgeon. I am unsure of what the cause of the bump might be but they are very common in the perineal area. I hope this helps and you get it checked out by a doctor.
Take care and have a lovely day !
