Suggest Treatment For Swelling And Redness In Groin Area

I am a 73 year old female whose inner thighs, from my knees to my groin area, has become swollen and red. I have no pain except when I touch the area, and then it feels sore and slightly painful to the touch. No pain unless I touch the area. Also, the area feels warm.

Hi

Thats a vague complaint. In such cases its suggestible to get a blood work up, an X ray done. Also in our setups in such cases we usually start with NSAIDS oral as well as for local application, the o/m that you use for local application should also have steroid if you are not having any fever

Thanks
