I've got this lump on my pubic area that's really worrying me. It's painful, reddish, and there's pus and blood coming out. The top of the lump looks pretty red too. I'm not sure what it could be, and it's freaking me out a bit. Should I be concerned or see someone about it?

A painful, red, and swollen lump with pus and blood in the pubic area may indicate a sebaceous cyst, abscess, or infected ingrown hair; however, it's crucial to consult a doctor or dermatologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis, as it could also be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a Bartholin's cyst or hidradenitis suppurativa, and may require treatment with antibiotics, drainage, or minor surgery.

I've been taking these medicines: Syntran 200, Codox, Hizet 25 mg, Lorinol 10, and using Tribex cream and Nozal cream. Now I'm breaking out in red rashes all over my body. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do?
Given the red rashes after taking those medications, consider stopping them immediately and consulting a doctor as soon as possible; in the meantime, apply a cool compress or calamine lotion to soothe the skin, take an oral antihistamine like diphenhydramine to reduce itching and inflammation, and avoid scratching the affected areas to prevent further irritation.
