I can understand exactly how you feel & the doubts you are having about a normal life. I had to learn to act like I was totally normal while having two large, extremely swollen places, that came together and made a bump that was almost 6 inches long, on the verge of forming a head, but still red and extremely painful, placed right on my groin, where my pants rubbed constantly.
I remember feeling like I could never live normally like this. Fortunately, after a couple of years living with this condition, I learned how to live like I was born with it, when large areas formed on my groin I would barely limp, & overcome the pain to continue normally.
