A member asked:
3 weeks ago i got a lil splinter in my thumb.i was unable to remove the splinter.now a bump has formed under my thigh.do i have a staph infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: If this has been 3 weeks ago and it is not painful and draining pus then probably not. Your body is certainly reacting to it and creating a small scar around it. It is probably not a bad idea to see someone to perhaps have it removed.
