Wasn't red, no swelling, no bruise (bluish) mark. I never had fever so there may be no infection. I experience good days, then a day with 3 to 4 occurences of a little pain for a few seconds, maybe a minute at most. It's not getting any worse. I thought of seeing my primary care provider before posting in this forum. As per "my odd cycle" I am bow on day-2 if no pain. If I see it getting worse, I will see my doctor. Thanks for your advice.
