Hi! So I'm no stranger to skin issues (especially since 2019). I'm still shy of going to a dermatologist in real life as the last time I tried, she tried to medically gaslight me essentially. Horrible experience. But I've gotten very used to just patiently dealing with stuff as it happens myself.

But I have no clue what is happening here. I may have had this for half a week. I have a giant beanbag bed so sometimes my phone will slip or my plushie gets moved around. So it hurt a little on my inner thigh & I kinda just assumed that I slept on something (like how a book might imprint on your cheek if you fall asleep reading).

Then I was doing shower stuff yesterday & was like 'WTF is this?' Because I suddenly saw I now have this reddish crater type circle wound on my inner thigh. Right next to that is this huge weird soft protuding lump of skin. I have bandaids covering them currently & wearing softest pj bottoms (which sucks as it's summer & they're winter pj bottoms). I've attached pictures: blue pen circle for the red crater wound & green pen circle for protuding lump. The black marker on the one photo is censoring my private area (it's just that much inward in terms of inner thigh & how close these are to my private area).

I would be grateful for any help, advice, tips, etc. that any of you might be able to provide. Thanks for any response in advance! 🙏 Also I chose legs/feet for flair as while very close to genitals, it's still technically the inner thigh. I used my cell phone camera for the photos & it was awkward angles so sorry if they're a bit blurry or confusing (the red square in the first 2 pics are a suitcase in the corner)
