I have the same thing! I can deal with a swollen lymph node.

ok, i believe i have the same thing that you all are talking about. from my point of view it's about an inch up/right from the base of my penis. i've done some looking on the internet trying to figure it out and this is what i found. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/9000.htm

that's the link that shows where lymph nodes are located near your groin area and it says,

"Lymph nodes play an important part in the body's defense against infection. Swelling might occur even if the infection is trivial or not apparent. Swelling of lymph nodes generally results from localized or systemic infection, abscess formation, or malignancy. Common areas where the lymph nodes can be felt include the groin area, armpit, the neck, under the jaw and chin, behind the ears, and below the occiput (prominence on the back of the head). As a rule, when swelling appears suddenly and is painful, it is usually caused by injury or an infection. Enlargement that comes on gradually and painlessly may result from malignancy or tumor. "

from the looks of it, no worries guys!

What most of you are most likely experiencing is the same thing that happened to me... If you shave your pubic hair, sometimes the skin gets irritated and an "ingrown hair" type thing happens. And sometimes bacteria gets in there while you are shaving, thus giving it a bump and irritating the area. It is most commonly called folliculitis. If you want the bumps to go away put a warm compress on them, such as a rag with warm water, that will help them deflate. Keep the area dry and clean it frequently and they will go away after a while. avoid shaving. if you want more info just google folliculitis.

I have had the same problem listed here for a few years now! I Got it checked out a couple years back but the pimple size was a lot smaller back then and the doctor told me not to worry about it.

I doubt its an ingrown hair as well. It is a few inches above where my penis starts in my pubic area.

So the current one has been there for about a week and it has started to hurt.. so the top layer of skin seemed thin so I popped it and some puss came out then a lot of blood, then I squeezed more and water/blood started to come out.. I got sick of wiping it so I jumped in the shower! Now that I came out, the bleeding stopped thank G0d! But when I move around or touch it, it hurts, and below the pimple, it feels wide and hard.

What could this be? Kinda freaked out...

i have the samething exactly what you guys are describing. an inch up from my penis in the pubic hair area. it seems as if out of no where it swelled up and turned red. i popped it and took a shower. after the shower i popped it again (looks) seems to be going down and the redness is going away gradually. and not for nothing but ive noticed it in the same spot b4 just not as irritable and tender. i never knew about the node though thats good info i was kind of worried. this just gave me some peace of mind.

I get the exact same thing. and i believe its a lymph nodes. I poped mines, and yea basically since I looked up some treatments and overall i kinna treasted it like a head-ache. and put some ice on it. shockingly it actually works.

i doubt its a swollen lymph node, they tend to be far under the skin, and they're glands so they dont tend to burst or pop, they also tend to feel bruised when you push them - talking from personal experience only. they people with the 'boils' that burst and ooze pus, itch and hurt - stop having unprotected sex and get yourself checked out - its sounds like herpes! I've got a lump atm, which led me to this blog but i think its just an ingrown hair, thats got infected, so im gonna keep the area clean and buy some ingrown hair remover! hope this helps!

it is posibly a swollen lymph node, or a ingrown hair. but for some of u it might be an SDT or it might be posible its just a pimple. JUST GET YER SELF CHECKED OUT!!!!!

I'm 16 and I have a similar pimple on my pubic region. I've tried popping it on numerous occasions, but all that resulted in was the pimple getting more prevalent and noticeable. Still a virgin by the way.
