Bumps on upper thigh

Common Questions and Answers about Bumps on upper thigh

bump

i have little red bumps on my upper thighs and buttocks. i can't figure out if they are ingrown hairs or what. how do i get rid of them?

A few days later I noticed a few more bumps on that side and also a few bumps on my other upper inner thigh, these also being near but not on my genitals. There is a small cluster on my right inner thigh but there are other bumps that are not in clusters. Now on my right inner thigh they have started to appear further down not by my genital region at all. I am concerned that these are herpes but have researched and found out that it is rare for herpes to appear on the thighs.

Well about a week or two after that I started itching on my upper thigh and started to notice bumbs on both thighs and a couple of my butt. I also have a hemorrhoid and I don't know if the bumps are from the hemorrhoid or if it might be something more serious (Like Herpes). They are bumps not blisters, a couple have scabs but I had been scratching them before I realized what it was but they have no pus and don't hurt. I have an appointment for my Gyn. on Thurs but I wanted some opinions now.

ive noticed that for about the past 7 months ive been having these medium size red bumps on the back of my upper thighs and at first i thought maybe they were acne but it hasnt gone away. theyre not itchy nor painful. im wondering what they are and if there is any way to treat them. Thank you.

Dear all, Thanks for all ur help and support , last week I had protected sex with a sex worker. But after a week I noticed a bump near my upper thigh where the thigh connected the genital. It initially itched like an insect bite , but later it dint itch no pains , the bump then deflated like a circle , and looks similar to a ring worm. It is not in the form of clusters it's just one bump. No pain and no itching now. Is it an HPV ??

Hi I have recently noticed that I have a few small redish bumps on my upper thighs. they are not in my vagina just upper thigh area. I have recently found out that I am pregnant as well. I am scared that it might be herpes, but none of the blisters have scabbed or anything like the pics I have seen. They dont not itch or burn or are uncomfortable in any way. Please help what do you think it is? Scared??

Hi As you have noted this to be highly localized over your thighs ,this may not be something systemic or disseminated. This may be an insect bite. Have you been oudoors a lot? Any history of sleeping in someone else's bed? Any history of borrowing someone else's clothes or towels? Apply a cold compress over the area to alleviate any itching or swelling. You may apply antimicrobial cream over the area.

A month ago I was taking a shower and felt a bump on the back of my upper thigh. It was a dark circular raised bump. I picked at it and it bled. A day later there was a scab with red irritation around it. I picked off the scab and put neosporin on it. The dark bump was gone, there was just a white circle with a bit of the red irritation around it. I wrote into Dr. Rockoff. The derm. told me to keep an eye on it for a month. He felt it sounded like a picked follicle.

Afterwards, he noticed a series of red bumps on his upper thigh. The bumps turned into blisters and went away within 4-5 days. Fluid did come out of them. We then had sex again and the bumps came back in the same place on his upper thigh but there were more of them than the first time. They really weren't in a "cluster" per say, but there were a bunch of them more in a line (not sure if that makes a difference).

During the last few days I have noticed a rash develop on the right side of my upper thigh and scrotum. It is a red rash that has bumps on it. They look like tiny zits, but without white heads or anything else, they just are red bumps that come up from the skin slightly. It itches a bit, and there is some moderate discomfort in the region where it is at. Just so that this is not what you might be thinking, I am not sexually active, so no std's. What should I do?

For about 3 months now i have had three recurring pimple looking bumps on my inner upper thigh, near the fold. At the time, I had been fooling around with a new guy, there was genital contact but no intercourse. He had just gotten out of a serious long term relationship. I had some itching a month into our fooling around and I assumed some bacteria on his hands has caused a yeast infection. I took a product similar to monistat or whatever and the itching stopped with no further problems.

So last week I got a rash where my scrotum meets my upper thigh. At first i thought it was just from chaffing, but it has lasted a week with talc powder which has never happened. It doesnt really itch but kind of hurts if i pull on my scrotum to get a better look. Im terrified its an STD, but don't really know what it would be. The rest of my scrotum is starting to seem a little redder and drier but that may be caused by the constant talc-ing.

A few weeks ago, I had to go to the hospital, and they noticed a small bump located on my upper right thigh. They tested me for MRSA, and the results were negative. For the past two days, I have started getting alot of pain in this area, and the bump is now massive and purple. Very sensitive to the touch. I had called the hospital, and they said it could be a boil or a cyst. I would just really like the pain to go away and know if I need to go get this checked out.

To the left closer to the genitals is some slightly pinkinsh skin also somewhat linear in form. On the fold of skin between my left upper inner thigh and genitals is a similar line that is faintly pinkish like healed skin. I noticed this a few weeks ago and it was present when I got examined 2 weeks after exposure at Planned Parenthood. I think I had the healed looking pinkish lines on both sides then.

I have had them for a few years now and they are very uncomfortable and sometimes painful (if they are ready to pop). The upper thigh is actually the back side of upper thigh. When they are painful, its very difficult for me because they keep me from sitting down. Plus in the inner thighs I get big pea size bump that kill when they are ready to pop. On a given day, I have at least one on each side. I would appreciate any suggestions on how I can get rid or lessen them. Thanks!

ok well since the beginning of november ive had a weird not rly pain but it feels stiffness i guess in my right upper inner thigh area .. i remember i kept poking that area for some reason and after that it started feeling weird .. i got a bruise in that area too from all the poking.. i know stupid.. but it went away after a couple of days .. but im scared because it feels like a weird stiffness but not when im walking only when im like squeezing my thigh muscles ..

I have a rash on my upper thighs and on my stomach for about a week now. I have no other symptoms and feel great except for the rash. The rash on my inner upper thighs is dark red and sometimes purple and bumpy. It started out as little red spots and then evened out at what it is now. The rash on my stomach is not as bad just a lot of little red raised bumps. It doesn't itch all the time and sometimes seems like it is going away.

After 24 hours the condition has not seemed to worsen in the initial area on my right upper thigh, but the rash on my left upper thigh seems to be slightly redder. To begin with my washer and dryer in my house broke and as a result I have had to engage in intense athletic practices and conditioning in unwashed compression shorts for about two weeks. However, the problem became noticeable about 3 to 6 hours after having protected sex (my first encounter with this girl).

I have been getting these swollen bumps in my upper inner thigh area. I talked to my doctor about this and he sald they were infected hairs because I have sensitive skin. I only get them when I start getting hot or sweating. They swell up and my husband has to take a needle and pop them. Then the bump will drain with clear fluid and then blood. Then it will go away. And most of the time they scar.

For the past year or so, I have had a couple bumps that have appeared on the crease of the upper thigh where the thigh meets the scrotum. There are NO bumps at all on the scotum or anywhere else on my genitals. Just on that crease. There is no pain, no itching, nothing, just these bumps. They look like pimples almost with a whitehead, but you can't pop them. So just tonight I took a go at it and cut the top off and the white part seems to come out as a hard-ish ball. Any idea what this is?

I had (protected) sex about 2 weeks ago and I just noticed this weeked that I have large red bumps on my upper left thigh. They do not itch but hurt. I saw a doctor and she gave me itching cream and told me to come back if it does not get better within this week. I'm not sure wht this could be, but my sister said it could be a form of herpes.

recently i started noticing red bumps on my upper inner thighs and vaginal area.. they itch but they dont hurt.. its visible and the ones on my thighs are not clustered together but the ones on the vaginal area there is like a bunch of them near the butt... they dont have any discharge... i dont know what it is..

For as long as I can remember I have had small red bumps, almost pimple like, on my thighs and upper arms. I don't hardly ever shave my thighs, and I don't shave my arms, so it can't be that. I have been sitting in the sun for a few days and have a slight tan on my arms etc, and it's still there so sun isn't getting rid of it. I went to the doctors and all they said was that it was lack of vitimans - which I doubt is true since my eating habits haven't changed....

Recently I've experienced soreness and discomfort on both upper thighs but especially on left upper thigh. I even have to sleep on my back because I feel sore/discomfort. Help!
