Hi, Along With The Symptoms I Included In The Symptom
Question: Hi, along with the symptoms I included in the symptom checker, I’d like to note that the discolored skin patched I mentioned are more like yellowish bruising on my chest.
In case you can’t view the symptom checker data:
- bruising like coloration on breast that doesn’t go away. Breasts are also itchy and sometimes sore. Warmer to the touch.
- lethargy
- night sweats
- enlarged lymph node on left armpit
- enlarged lymph node with possible boil/infection on right side of groin / inner thigh. goes away and comes back in cycles. Might not actually be infected, might just be that it enlarges and subsides in cycles. Unsure.
- changes in bowel movements
Any idea what this could be?

Would eczema also explain the swelling of my lymph node?
Brief Answer:
Biopsy may be required also.

Hello dear and thank you for asking again .
Eczema can't explain the swelling of lymph nodes but overinfection of eczema can explain it. Also biopsy of the lesions may be required to determine exactly the type of the disease.
