My husband (wheelchair user in case that's relevant) told me yesterday the underside of his thigh was sore. I had a look and that was a bit of a lump/swelling. Decided to keep an eye on it.
This morning it's bigger and looks like it's got a 'head'. Unsure if there's anything we can do to help it today. I'm currently hot compressing it. It's painful to do much with.
I'm not a medic but work in healthcare, does the lump spread the full length between your two fingers? (If that makes sense?) Or is it just the angle of the photo
And when the area is lightly pressed does it feel hard or soft. Is it warmer than the rest of his thigh?

In that case it is quite big isn't it, and it does look red in the picture as well even though it doesn't feel particularly hot. It could be a cyst or something similar, best to get it seen to before it gets bigger or starts to get infected
