Need help, please!
I have these giant raised bumps on my groin that are extremely painful.... i dont know if this is jock itch but its so painful and mildy itchy... also, the part thats raised is extremely hard, very red and the skin is peeling... very little to no pus and there arent small blisters... 3-4 extremely large, painful, hard, raised areas
They sound maybe like boils or abscesses. How long have you had them?
You should go to an urgent care center today and get them looked at. You may need an antibiotic. If there is any pus, ask them to test it for bacteria.
This is not an STD, if you are concerned about that, and it doesn't sound like jock itch, but let a doctor see it.
Let us know how it goes. Feel better.
