Blood Blister In Groin. Popped, Stopped Bleeding, Formed Crater. Cause Infection?
I have a blood blister , or what looks like a blood blister, where my thigh meets my groin . At first it was just a little blackhead and I have this terrible bad habit of picking at them. The other day I noticed it was a dark splotch about the size of two pencil erasers put together. When I got home today I noticed my underwear had a red stain where the blister is and the blister popped. Now there s this little crater and it has stopped bleeding after a hot bath. Should I be worried about infection? What should I do?
hi it looks like folliculitis. first get a culture of the wound to look for organism and antibiotic sensitivity. get regular blood investigation done. after getting the reports specific antibiotics can be started. first go to a general surgeon and get the investigation done. get it done as soon as possible so that it will not spread
wish you good health
