What Causes Lumps Bleeding With The Skin Peeling Off Leaving A Sore Skin?
I had a lump where thigh meets groin. Today, blood began pouring out of it. It now feels and looks like there is a hole there, not just a crater but a hole. What could this be? I also have a lump on breast which bled and will not heal and the skin on and around areola is now peeling off leaving sore bleeding skin underneath or flaking and dry

Hi
Thanks for your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is
1. You are having two complaints which is probably not related.
2. First being lump in the breast, which bleeds is of concern as a bleeding lesion from breast can be a tumor, may be a duct papilloma or a malignancy.
This needs to be evaluated further
3. Lump in the inguinal area is often secondary to infection in the genital area. If you have any lesions on genitalia, do get it examined and treated accordingly.
4. If there are no lesions elsewhere and groin ulcer is the sole problem then it is probably primary lesion in groin like necrotizing lesion which is causing ulcer. Get a cytology as well as biopsy examination of the ulcer.
5. Besides the lesion needs dressing with antibiotic application, so medical attention is required.
Hope this helps
Regards
