Bump Between The Crease Of Leg, Pubic Bone. Benign Tumor?

I have a small (maybe an inch long) finger like bump between the crease of my leg and pubic bone (more up front than underneath) I am certain it is not a in grown hair or pimple . The skin is fine, the lump is felt underneath. Concerned that it is the same type of benign tumor I had on my parotid gland that caused me to have a parotidectomy? is that possible?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It seems that you are having skin tag.

It is narrow long growth of skin ,also known as achrocordon.

It is benign growth.

It may be kept untreated.

Still, you consult dermatologist.

It may be removed by simple methods..excision,electrocautery or cryotherapy under local anaesthesia.

I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
