Question 1

raw patches between legs and vagina. sore to the touch but itches badly?

Accepted Answer

Yeast: This sounds like a yeast infection. You may want to try some over the counter anti-fungal cream to see if that helps. You should find relief in 12-24 hours if it is in fact a yeast infection. If it doesn't work, then consider going to clinic or doctor for an exam.

Question 2

this morning i had a cramp in the front of my upper left leg. it is still sore to the touch and when walking. is it normal to still be sore?

Accepted Answer

Varies: It varies somewhat, for example, did you run or work out or have another reason for it to be sore?  Possible causes can include irritation of the muscles or tendons in that part if the leg or even a sciatica from the back.  Don't hesitate to be seen for it.

Question 3

i have a red angry lump on my leg. it started off as a black dot under the skin. it is slightly sore to the touch. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

? Folliculitis: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. From what you described it could be inflammation/infection in a hair follicle. You may try warm compresses to make it "ripe". If it pops, you may use neosporin ointment for infection. Do not try to pop it manually.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex.
