Lump with blue skin above it

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any similar experiences. I have a lump under my skin on the upper part of my thigh but the skin above it has a blue tint to it. I’ve been meaning to go to doctors but can’t get an appointment because there are none available. So I was just hoping to see whether anyone had an experience like this one?

Thanks

    Hi,

    If you can't get an appointment can I suggest that you ask your GP if you can send them a photo of your blue tinged lump. They can then assess it & decide if it needs sending to dermatology to see if you need a referral. It could be anything but I would push to get it looked at as, if it's not disappearing, it may need medical intervention. Good luck & please let us know how you get on,
