Question 3

pea sized lump in groin where upper leg meets abdomen and pelvis. is this common? does not hurt. will watch but concerned. 25 female..

Accepted Answer

Sounds like you have: An enlarged lymph node. You are correct about watching it. Not to worry but watch it for 2 weeks and inform your pcp. If its getting bigger or becomes painful, see the pcp sooner.

Question 4

Question 5

See a doctor: Wihtout knowing anything else, this sounds like a hernia. See a doctor for further evaluation.

Question 6

have a lump in groin area, 2-3 cm and movable.  appeared abruptly then faded away only to appear abruptly again 4 weeks later.  should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Lump: Hernia, cyst, lymphnode are all possibilities. This should be evaluated.

Question 7

pea-sized lump in groin  area. not sure how long it was there?

Accepted Answer

Pea-sized lump: The most common pea-sized (3-5 mm) lump in the groin area is an ingrown-hair which blocks up a hair follicle and enlarges as normal gland secretions can't get out. These will usually take care of themselves, as long as the hair follicle itself does not get infected from the irritation, in which case an antibiotic would be indicated. Another possibility is a lymph gland, but these are usually large.

Question 8

i have a small lump in groin area this is point where my inner thigh meets my groin area plz help  and it's moveable ?

Accepted Answer

Hernia?: Sounds like it could be a hernia, a common condition that is only treated surgically. See a general surgeon for a consultation to find out for sure. Hope this helps!

Question 9

he's currently being checked for hurchsprung diseise could this have anything to do with the lump in groin area he suffers severe bloating too?

Accepted Answer

See a Ped surgeon: I assume youre asking about a baby? Hirschprung's disease would be a cause for constipation. This could definitely be a cause for severe bloating. The lump in groin area may be a hernia that is worsened by straining on defecation due to Hirschprung's. I would recommend consulting your local pediatric surgeon for both.

Question 10

i have a small lump in groin area that hurts to touch.i first had it about a year ago but it used to appear before period and disapear after 3, 4 days

Accepted Answer

Sebaceous cyst: If it is painful then it could be either a sebaceous cyst or a folliculitis.  Antibiotics would help with this.
