Question 1

can an old lingering case of condyloma cause palpable or swollen inguinal nodes? also could bad toe nail fungus cause this?

Accepted Answer

Nail fungus: Would not cause it, depending on the etiology of the condylomata it is possible. For example condylomata could be secondary to syphillis and syphillis can cause swollen lymph nodes. (i just used syphillis as an example).

Question 2

hi. just recently i went to the emergency room due to a swollen a foot fungus should i keep my foot wrapped in?

Accepted Answer

Nothing: Fungus grows in a dark, warm and moist environment. If you have swelling, you may have a secondary bacterial infection and may require oral antibiotics. Most of the time, fungal infections of the skin on the feet . Respond to topical antifungal. Wrapping the foot would promote moisture, warmth. Let the air get to it.

Question 3

can a nail/foot fungus spread to the inside of the legs and go up to the groin?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If there is contact with the fungal area it can spread.

Question 4

right foot 48 f (9 c) hotter than left (ir thermo). toes swollen, red itching and burning spots on top. not blue. frostbite or fungus?

Accepted Answer

Varies : Multiple potential  causes.  Frostbite would really be a consideration only if you had sustained severe cold to that extremity.  Temperature differences can be caused by an abnormality causing a cool foot, or by causing a warm foot.  Cool feet are often related to vascular issues.  Warm feet may be vascular, infectious, or inflammatory such as gout.  A good exam would give idea about likely cause.

Question 5

my husband has very swollen feet with burning, peeling skin he has a history of eczema and they hurt to move. it doesn't itch. is this a foot fungus?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: If his feet are very swollen this can cause cracks in the skin and cause the skin to blister or peel. This could be due to eczema or just from the swelling. They can be painful due to the skin being broken to move them. Best to have them checked out, he may need a steroid cream, compression, or it could be a fungal infection, but the only way to know would be to have them looked at.

Question 6

i have athletes foot and fungus nail infection on 2 toes.. if i went swimming would i contaminate the water & spread the fungus to my hair, groin ect ?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Athlete foot and nail fungus don't get transmitted to the same person just by swimming in water. 
At the same time, it is a difficult infection to get rid of and you may need strong prescription from a doctor

Question 7

i have been having pain on my right side back radiating to the front and down to the groin. today i am having pain along with swollen feet. what do ?

Accepted Answer

More than one possib: Pain down to the groin suggests a kidney stone but the swelling need clarification this could also be a pinched nerve.

Question 8

what causes swollen feet, legs, calves, thighs, groin, stomach, liver for 4 months?

Accepted Answer

How exactly : Would you know your liver is swollen? You should see your internist! swelling all over like that needs to be evaluated.

Question 9

what kind of foot infection could cause a swollen groin lymph node?

Accepted Answer

Swollen lymph nodes: Any type of foot infection that creates inflammation can cause the inguinal lymph nodes (those in the groin) to swell.  The lymph nodes filter lymph fluid as it flows through them, trapping bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances, which are then destroyed by special white blood cells called lymphocytes. See your doctor to treat the foot infection.  Warm compresses can help the swelling.

Question 10

swollen lymph node on one side of groin *3 mths after last sex. could this be from a sti or most likely something else? no visible leg/feet cuts/sores

Accepted Answer

STI unlikely: The large majority of inflamed lymph nodes in the groin are not from STIs. Assuming no recent genital blisters or sores, etc, the chance of an STI is even lower. It isn't zero, and it would be prudent to have an STI checkuip, especially a syphilis blood test, if you may be at risk, like a new or potentially unsafe sex partner. And if it persists, see a doctor to look into other causes. Good luck!
