Noticed A Small Bruise At The Right Groin Area . What It Could Be?

I am a quality engineer on a lengthy audit at a plant (concrete floors, etc.), 12 hours per day over 4 days. Day 2 I had red skin on my inner upper thigh and my right groin area felt "Bruised". Today (day 3) in my right crotch area there is a definite "bruise" like color taking place and perhaps my lymph node in that area is swollen. Very light pain, feels like a small bruise but is beginning to look terrible.

Hi,

I have gone through your query.
From the history and type of lesion, it is suggestive of infection. Chances of fungal infection is more than bacterial. For the lesion, you can use triple action ointment like Lobate GM for local application. Maintain proper hygiene of the area and wear loose clothes.


Do consider a positive feedback as a credit to my work. Let me know if you have any further questions.
