Suggest Cause & Medications For Red Swollen Hard Lump On Thigh
I recently went camping this weekend, and when I came home I noticed that I had a small lump on my thigh that looked like a bite. Recently however it has grown to be about three inches, it is hard, red and swollen. I'm not sure what it could be or if I should get it checked out.

Hi.
If you say it has grown 3 inches, you should get this checked.
I think you need an active treatment.
Antihistamine/ antibiotic/ anti-inflammatory/ steroids if your treating Doctor feels so.
Regular follow up is a must.
