Is Growing, Hard Bump On Thigh With Severe Pain Concerning?

Hi my name is Shelby. I got a bump on my inner thigh 4 days ago n it keeps growing fast its huge. I put hot compresses on it a little head showed up and a tiny bit came out. Now it looks like someone cut it n it keeps growing n it is so painful. Its getting harder and its coming from under my skin. Should I be worried?

thanks for sharing your health concerns with us!

well, it seems that it could be some sebaceous cyst already infected! not to worry much give cool-compress and consult some general surgeon for antibiotics and removal!

if you are worried much an FNAC TEST IS THE BEST WAY TO CONFIRM IT! but not to poke it again as it can be infected severely.........

all the best......!
