A member asked:
I have a red lump in the pubic area, it is quite firm and sore to touch and about the size of a fingertip, is it something i need to worry about?

Infection: This could be an infected hair follicle if it's reddened and tender. Apply warm compresses and if it doesn't quiet down, drain or recede,have an examination by a physician as it may need to be drained especially if it enlarges.
