Suggest Remedy For Painful Lump In Thighs

I have noticed a fleshy lump on my inner upper thigh. It is below the crease of my left leg under bikini area, directly between thighs. Several weeks ago I noticed it. Started off approximately dime size and is now about the size of a quarter. It feels like mushy skin and has no pain. What could this be? Any reason for concern?

General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

based from your description, it could be a lipoma (fatty deposit) or a cyst (sebaceous or a keratinous type). these lesions can occur anywhere in the body and have the tendency to recur. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for medical and physical examination. management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
