What Is The Painful Lump On My Gooch?

hi i have a rectangle shaped lump on my gooch it hurts if it is touched, i noticed it a couple of days ago but it was alot smaller then. Also a couple of weeks ago i had a similar lump on my neck but it looked like a GIANT pimple and now that my neck lump has healed there is no hair growing in that spot. Could this gooch lump be the same as my neck lump and is it harmful?

Hi,Good Morning,Thanks for your query to My-HCM Clinic.I studied your query in depth.I understood your concerns.
My opinion on the gooch lump- is -mostly a -furunculitis with boil.
-It appears to be the same as that on the neck.
-Coincidence of 2 boils /furuncles -suspects diabetes and needs to be ruled out ASAP.
-I would advise-FBS,PPS and consult a physician and surgeon.
-Treat with antibiotics and NSAIDs, if does not reduce the lump , then a surgeons help to drain it is needed.
-Hope this would help you to recover from worry-some query.
Wish you a Fast Recovey.Wellcome to HCM again.
