whilst I was on holiday in spain i noticed a small, slightly saw red lump, just below my waist line at the top of the pubic hair region, it got slightly bigger and then shrunk and almost disappeared, that was around 5 weeks ago, I thought that it was just a mosquito bite or and ingrown hair, but over the last 2 weeks, it has re-appeared and gotten bigger and bigger, and today its sore as hell, its now about the size of half a ping pong ball raised from my skin, and is perfectly circular, very red and very sore and the area around that is swollen and red also it does look as though eventually it will come to a head but at the moment its just smooth and shiny and the skin is starting to crack, I have had similar things before on my inner thighs, but this one is huge, I know that the obvious answer is to go and see a doctor but I am English and currently working in Holland and have no insurance, I can go home if it doesn't sort itself out, but i'm just looking to see if there is anyone who knows about this or has had this, or knows a way i can get a head up on it, I have used heat on it which i have read on here works but, still nothing ......... i need to sort something out as its getting very sore! hope you can help!

Could be a boil, probably needs to be lanced. You could probably do it yourself, but I wouldn't recommend it.
