Suggest treatment for a hard painful lump on the groin area
Patient: I have a big lump in my groin/upper thigh and it was a hard pea shaped ball, but I couldn t move it and was painful, now it s gotten bigger and more tender in the middle and also turned from skin coloured to really red and has a stinging sensation when touched, I don t know what it is? Doctor: Hi,It seems that there might be having enlarged tender inguinal lymph node giving rise this problem.It indicates that there might be having some infection in near by area.Consult your doctor and get examined.A course of antibiotic medicine for 5 days will heal the lesion.Ok and take care.
