If only my leg was doing as well

Yes, it seems the ever present navel is doing quite well this evening, however I seem to have one of those weird things that acts like a boil is coming up, making a big red bump on the inside of my thigh coming up. I seem to get these from time to time, and they are a bit painful, kind of like a large zit, and yet they never amount to anything except a bit of discomfort for a week or so as they run their course. Sometimes they do actually culminate in forming a small head of some kind. I was thinking today, maybe it was the male midlife tradeoff for not having that unsightly cellulite on the back of our thighs. I am so thankful, however, that these things never develop on any of my more important body parts, like the aforementioned navel. Oh but to have that youthful body of mine when I was twentysomething, with those smooth firm legs and the tight abdomen which was the perfect resting place for my youthful navel. You know they always say you can't turn back the clock, but I find we do that all the time with this daylight savings time, but you damn sure can't get younger, can you, no matter how many times you wind that clock back.

OK, I know, this has gotten a bit bizarre, hasn't it, so let me end this report before I got totally off the deep end. I would hate to drown in my own inanity, you know.

I recentely found a bump on the back of my thigh when i itched my leg and it hurt pretty bad. I looked in the mirror and saw a large red bump. I felt around it and it is very sore. I didn't know what it was and i figured it was just a spider bite but i guess i was wrong! Now that i read your info i now know that it has to run it's course and it's not a spider bite. Thanks!!!!!
