A member asked:

I have what i think is a boil in my mid thigh it's red and purple but has been sitting in the same place with no growth or came to ahead for a wile?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on how long: it really depends on how long it has been there. It could be a boil (abscess) but that's usually painful and becomes red and hard then soft and may burst on its own. It could be a number of things. One would really need to look at it to say what it is. Go to an urgent care or your primary doc to get it checked out
