A member asked:

A month ago i had what i thought was an ingrown hair in inner thigh. red, painful, had puss. now it's purple with hard bump under skin?? i'm std free

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Did your squeeze it?: If you did then the hard lump are white blood cells trying to scavenge the remaining bacterial breakdown products(pus). If you did not squeeze it, have a MD take a look and see what happened and if needed provide a Rx for topical use and antibiotics if severe.
