I have a hard, pea sized lump on my bikini line!!! PLEASE HELP

I recently developed a small lump on my inner thigh on my bikini line, it isnt painful unless I squeeze it, but is slightly worrying me. It looks like a bruise as it has a bluish tint to it - but as I have had it for a couple of weeks now it can’t be. I don’t know if I should see a doctor or if it is normal? I am 18 years old and have never had a lump here before. PLEASE HELP!!!

1. You saying lump means under your skin. So nothing tropical can fix that.
2. You saying it is on the bikini line. I assume its in groin area... In another words. It might be a swollen lymph node !
If its not a pea sized lump or so underskin.. Please let me know

It could very well be a swollen lymph node as it is bean shaped etc... should I see a specialist? Or, as it is causing me no pain or discomfort, should I just monitor it over the next couple of weeks?
Love i advise you to see a specialist. Time is precious.. And you might have to do some blood work to see if the lymph nodes are acting up. Do you have tender underams? A lump in neck or anywhere else??
Usually. Swollen Lymph nodes are sign of an infection... Do not worry it can be a really. It doesn't necessary have to be such a FATAL virus and incurable. And it might be cancerous, but again, it does not have to be bad.
Hormones can be too love.. 18 is such a rollercoaster.
Anyways, let me know ASAP and keep me posted.
PS: in general lymph nodes go down in a matter of 3 weeks. ( i have been there )

It is probably just a clogged pore- I would just watch it, keeping the area clean- if it changes in appearance or starts to hurt, itch, etc- have a doctor take a look at it.
