What Causes A Pus Filled Lump On The Pubic Region?
Hi, I had unprotected sex recently and 3 days later found 2 bumps on my public region. I get a lot of ingrown hairs but these look different. 1 healed within 24-48 hours the other seems almost infected, with a red circle around it, yellow dry pus and very tender. Thoughts? I did have a bad outbreak all over my Penis years ago, but my doctor said it was a skin infection and cream cleared it up. Freaking out. Please help.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to furuncles.
They are an infection of the hair follicles.
I suggest using an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream.
I also suggest maintaining good hygiene.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
