I used to live in a house that had lots of mice. when we moved out of the house i had a large puss/blood filled bump on the back of my leg. Ive had this for maybe 3/4 of a year now. Im really scared. At first, i had one every now and then, now i have them every day.. Its getting worse, the bumps are getting bigger. I have small ones too.. and all of them hurt when i sit down or walk. Once i have them, i have to wait a day to drain it and then it drains once a day for maybe 3 days and then it starts to heal. It drains lots of puss and blood. Once it starts to heals, it gets a scab on it that itches. And it leaves like a purple mark where the bump was. Eventually the scar goes away. If you have any idea what this might be.. please tell me! Im only 17 and im really scared about what it is.

Hey gabrielles, forget what they said about a blood disease. When you drain the bumps, do they turn purple and dry scab over? This is what is called folliculitis doing with the hair folicles, it is very common, most people are embarrasses to talk about it. What happens is it is basically an infected ingrown hair that doesnt reach the tip of the pore to release any of the puss and plasma and blood. Sometimes they get really big and they are not even visible because they are hidden in or around skin like the thighs and bottocks. They can appear around the pubic region as well. Just avoid shaving in the area around where they occur. Also shower on a daily basis and dont wear dirty clothing. Another thing that promotes the growth is breading of bacteria which can be cause of severe sweating if you live in humid climate. Avoid bare skin contact with toilet seats always use a seat gaurd. Wash your hands after drainng the fluid the bacteria in the fluid carries hsv the bacteria that breads the herpes simplex virus, no, you dont have herpes. This is very common, if you have excess weight that can also contribute to this dealing with the breading of bacteria b excessive sweating. You can certainly get on an antibiotic to help rid of this. Chances are you have wide open pores, in which is just another risk factor for these skin problems. You may get back to me if you have any questions. -Genavive Sharapova M.D.

This helped alot, I commonly get these zit-like bumbs around my pubic area, and on my butt and upper thigh. most are small ones that don't bother me, but right now i have this huge one thats like an half an inch around and at least a full centimeter tall. they usually spit out a bit of puss, but after that they just bleed. im hoping that what i have is what was mentioned before because i am slightly overweight and a growing teenage girl who shaves.

Well my sister has that on back of her thigh. They look really bad and im worried about her. They are huge! You can even feel them over the jeans. She says it hurts when she sits down or even walk! We have no clue what it is. Shes scared that it has to do with HIV since she was at risk a few months ago.
She always messes with the bumps, and one day, she squeezed a huge one, and a lot of blood came out with some white stuff which i believe was puss. She kept squeezing it and a lot more came out, it looked gooey. Do you guys knoe anything about this?
