A member asked:

I have a small light purple bump on the inside of my leg right at the edge of my groin. it's about pea shaped. what do i do?

Skin lump: You'll need to see a doctor in person to get a diagnosis of this little lump, and to decide what to do for it. Maybe it'll go away on its own, but it might need to be removed in the office. For now, try some warm soaks, 20 minutes twice a day. If it gets larger, hurts, or turns red, see someone right away.
