A member asked:
I have a purple lump near my groin. i did squeeze it but onky blood came out at first. my skin does cover it could it be to do with being hot or moist?

Lump: It sounds like this is a lymph node or an abscess formation. I would have a physician evaluate this. I do not recommend poping this as this can cause a potential infection, and potentially cellulitis. If it is an abscess, usually a hot towel to the skin can promote it to drain on its own.
