Infection on pubic area
Bump appeared on my pubic area a month ago and it suddenly became larger, red, itchy, and hurts. The main area is a bit hard to the touch. My left lymph node in my pelvis had been swollen due to this for a few days. I'm thinking it might be an ingrown hair that got infected but I'm still worried. I'm female
