about two days ago, I realized a small bump was forming on my right button where the inner thigh is. Yesterday, the bump became swollen and red. It was painful to sit, walk and my clothes kept on sticking to their. I was on my period when this happened and the pad kept on rubbing the bump. I finished my period today and when I woke up and went to the bathroom, the bump popped and blood and puss came out. It was dripping so I kept on wiping it with a tissue untill I couldn't get the remaining blood. I put a carefree pantie liner and the blood is going onto there. Am I in danger? My mom called my aunt (who is a doctor) and told me I might have abscesses. She told me I might need surgery and I have an extreme phobia of surgery. Is it major surgery or could it be an incision and drainage? My mother told me she once got one on her hand and they popped it, drained it, put some medicine on it and gave her antibiotics. Can anyone please help and tell me what may happen? I'm extremely worried. I have no pains on my abdominal area, I only have pains if I touch the bump, (which became much smaller after it popped) or if I walk and sit.
