Hi i have a lump under my stretchmark which i thought was a boil or spot of some kind. It started to get irritating so I tried to pop it. A clear substance accompanied by a bit of blood came out but now it is bigger and even more sore. Can you help in any way?
Hi, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns. Cause of the sore lump under stretch mark-In my opinion the lump under stretch mark is mostly due to bruise on the stretch mark, with bleeding under the skin with hematoma. As you poked it, more trauma lead to more hematoma with more soreness of the lump with increase in size. So please avoid poking that lump. Tab anti-inflammatory and antibiotics under cover of ER doctor would resolve the lump and soreness in 5 days time. Consult ER Surgeon if the lump grows and trouble increases. Consult your ER Surgeon if need be, who would treat it accordingly. So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to Chat Doctor and be comfortable to resolve your health issues. Welcome for any more query in this regard to Chat Doctor. Write good resume and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advice. Have a Good Day. Chat Doctor. N.
