What Causes A Cyst In Crease Of The Leg?

Hi, I have had this lump/cyst, or some kind of swelling in the crease of my leg and genitals just below the hip bone, on my right side. I m female, 31 and generally very healthy. It causes some discomfort throughout the day, seems to be not inflamed or sore when I first wake up. Throughout the day it seems to pop out (not a skin lump or boil, it s inside my groin. Anyway when it s big if I gently push or apply a little pressure it seems to either release, go further inside me or just move. Sounds weird but kind of feels like a soft sand filled balloon or something and it either empties/deflates or is being pushed back into where I can hardly feel it. It s freaking me out and all the reading on all the conditions etc is just confusing me. Thank u soooo much for your time. Can t wait for some advice :) Thanks, Amy.

Hi,

The symptoms you are describing looks like a infected sebaceous cyst. For this you need to take antibiotics and undergo removal of the cyst as it tends to recur.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
