What is this on my hip?

It’s been there a few weeks, I sort of forget about it until I touch it, bit sore to touch but not otherwise, not really itchy unless I start messing with it. Isn’t a bite 🤷🏻‍♀️
Sorry for the stretch marks!

@sunsetsandboardwalks Ive not tried, I’ve just left it for now, thinking it will disappear, I will try tonight

Boil or cyst maybe? They can sit under your skin for ages - how does it respond to a boiling hot flannel/compress?

Didn’t realise I had that many stretch marks 😬

Looks like a spot.

I’ll try to get a clearer picture, my worry is it’s been there for a while

I agree it could be a spot/boil or a bite, but the pic is unclear and you said its not itchy. I'd put a hot compress on it and try squeezing it. Does it have a head?

Nasty under the skin spot that hasn’t formed a head yet? Is it rubbing against trousers or something which means it’s not getting better?

Sorry, I appreciate its difficult to take your own photo but its a bit too unclear to be able to tell.

Not really that sore only if I touch it a lot, push it, it’s like a bump/boil 🤷🏻‍♀️never had this before
