my husband is complaining of a painful perineum area --he says it is EXTREMELY painful and feel swollen with a lump ---he uses the exercise bike frequently and I attributed it to riding the bike ---but he is almost to the point of going to the ER he is in so much pain ---could it be a cyst? prostate?
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some cyst or abscess formation in that area, so it is very painful.  You should take anti-inflammatory plus analgesic Chat Doctor.  Furthermore, you can also take antibiotics if any infection is there. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
