Suggest Treatment For Lump In The Inner Thigh

I have some lump in my inner thigh area near my groin. It s softish and moveable. I think it s a lymph node but it s in an area that rubs with my other inner thigh and clothes. Could it be a cyst? I already have a lymph node in the back of my neck for a year now which my doctor has already checked. The small lump has that white thing that s on pimples. What could it be?

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your elucidate history.
From the description you have provided, the lump on the neck is a sebaceous cyst as it has white material and a pimple on it.
The lumps on the inner aspect thigh can not be a lymph node as it is not the place for any of the lymph nodes.
Hence the possibilities are:
Lipoma as it is movable and is a common place to have lipomas in most of the patients.
Second possibility is a sebaceous cyst.
I think you must consult a General Surgeon to have a proper diagnosis and get both the lumps removed as they can cause complications later in life.
You get the lumps out of the body and you also get a confirmed diagnosis.
I find this answer helpful
