What Causes Swollen Lumps Along With Itching On The Inner Thighs?
I have long term skin disease at inner thai both side. It often gets swelling and itching very much. Skin has become a bit dark at the affected area. I have used lots of medicine and ointment for more than 20 years. I need permanent cure of this disease.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have swollen swollen lumps along with itching on the inner thighs, Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like haematoma , lipoma , fibroma , cellulitis and abscess. But in your case it seems to me that the lump is due to persistence of infection and due to underlying systemic pathology. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to clean the lump with soap and normal water , apply warm compresses and take benadryl twice a day . If it doesn't get better then consult dermatologist for proper examination to prevent condition like septicemia . Doctor may check the consistency . Doctor may drain the lump , prescribe antibiotics , anti allergic and anti inflammatory. You can get fine needle aspiration cytology done to find out exact cause and nature of lesion.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
