What Is The Treatment For A Painful Lump In The Groin Area?

My husband is 34 and has had a lump in the crease of his right leg and groin area for the past few months. It changes size from time to time and can be painful too sometimes. But today he has not checked it lately and when he streteched while laying down he felt a sharp pain down there and low and behold he was bleeding and saw a b b shaped hole where the blood was coming from. The lump was sore and the area was soft to touch. What is this lump and what would cause it to burst a hole like that and bleed? Mind u this area has no hair so he has had no need to shave there and we both know its not a boil or ingrown hair.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some inguinal lymphnode enlargement. It may be due to tuberculosis with supraadded abscess formation. Or it may be some other inflamed lesion. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology and culture of that material. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
