Hi.  I have always suffered from small boils in my groin, top of thighs and also as a result of ingrown hairs due to shaving in pubic region.  I now have a small hole in my groin where a burst boil has previously been.  I am keeping the area clean, using anti sceptic cream and plasters and am hoping it will heal.  My concern is that it burst a couple of months ago and took a while to heal. I thought it had gone but it got really sore a few nights ago, a lump formed in the area and it popped. I am now left with the hole again. Do I need to go and see my Dr. now/require antibiotics or can I continue to manage it myself? Many thanks for your advice.
HelloThanks for query. Based on what you have described I would state that you have developed Sebaceous Cyst in the groin. The skin in groin and around genitals is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin. The recurrence of the cyst is due to fact that the sac of the cyst which secretes thick sebum still remains intact and the only contents of the cysts are Chat Doctor. Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment. If needed some of them which are bigger may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac).
