what is this?

by msandi_84, May 29, 2008 06:20PM
lately ive been very stressed and depressed and have gain a large amount of wait very quickly. I also have started taking new meds. including yaz now i have developed a bunch of large blemishes on my inner upper thighs and dont know what they are. they are large they look like my pore is flipped inside out b/c they grow outward and kinda look like large pimples but when popped hurt very badly they are pretty sensitive and never really pop. so i've never had this problem before and im in a manogamis and have been for 13 months. so my question is what are they, why are they there, and how do i get rid of them?

Could be in-grown hairs. Just make sure you wash the area every day, keep it dry, and you might want to put some sort of ointment on it to help the skin heal. If you don't see improvement in a few days, you might want to see a doctor.

Hi. This could be folliculitis, a bacterial infection of the skin. Your doctor will be able to prescribe an antibacterial foam to clear this up.

folliculitis doesn't usually "pop".  How are you doing?
