How Can I Get Rid Of The Lump In Groin Which Is Hard, Red And Painful?
My partner has discovered a lumb about the size of a 2p in his groin. It's to the right side of his left leg right next to his left testical. He says it's painful and the skin is red, it feels hard.
He said he did squat at the gym recently and isn't sure if he's strained anything. Do you have any idea of what it is or how to get rid of it?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.
It can be a boil...start on an antibiotic and painkiller...it will mature in a few days and brust...else you can show to a surgeon for incision and drainage.
