I would definitely see a doctor about that.
It could be cancer, after all.
Not to alarm you or anything, with the cancer thing.
But if it is cancer, and you deal with it fast enough, it doesn't have to be any sort of death sentence.
It could be something else, entirely, too. But still something you need to deal with sooner, rather than later.
If you don't have insurance, go to an emergency room. Don't waste your time with the Inova hospitals, either. Go to either GWU or Georgetown. GWU is where Cheney and Reagan went, and Georgetown is a university hospital (so is GWU). You'll get much better care at either of those.
But if you don't have insurance, they still have to treat you, and they will try to collect from you but they might also try to hook you into Medicaid to get paid if your income level is low enough.
