What Is The Lump On The Thigh With Itchy Skin?
So last week I started itching real bad, especially in my legs. I started noticing some bruising (and there were a lot of bruises, BIG bruises) where I scratched. I didn't think I was scratching so hard and I've never bruised like this before whenever I've had skin problems where I needed to scratch. Now, I found a lump in my upper thigh and it's the size of a quarter. I can only notice it when I touch it and it feels like I'm pressing against another bruise. However nothing has appeared on the skin which is leading me to believe it's beneath the skin. Any ideas on what it could be?
