Question 1

hello, i have a lump on my inner upper thigh near my groin. it is irregular in shape, hard, somewhat movable, deep (under fat), yet not painful ideas?

Accepted Answer

Have it checked: This is something you'll want to have checked out.  Hard irregular things growing under your skin need to be evaluated properly.  See your doc for an exam and follow up testing.  Hope this helps!

Question 2

25 y/o f. i have a lump in groin area btwn upper thigh and pelvic area. it is unmovable, approx 1 cm, painful even w/o touch, deep under skin.

Accepted Answer

Lymph nodes: In this area, a lump could be a lymph node, a hernia, a cyst. Avoid rubbing or manipulating. If persists longer than a week, get in for evaluation with your doc. Ultrasound will make the diagnosis of hernia versus something else. Be well.

Question 3

Question 5

i have a question my uncle isn't of the best health and uses some things that aren't the best. recently hes found a lump that's on his upper thigh/groin region had excessive bouts of hiccups to the point of vomiting bad headaches and a very withdrawn almo

Accepted Answer

He needs help: I don't know who is 51 years old but if it is your uncle he needs to be seen to explain the headaches, lumps and hiccups and vomiting.  He is probably afraid of what will be found.  If you can convince him that you love him and want to know what is troubling him so he can be helped (before it's too late) he might get the help he needs.  Good luck.

Question 6

56 year old man. bad charlie horses in upper thigh near groin after a day of extra exertion. drinks a lot of water so not dehydration. what can help?

Accepted Answer

Charley horse: This is what my parents called the crampy pains the day after some heavy exertion/lifting.  Drinking lots of water is a good idea to wash out any damaged muscle proteins.  It will get better.  Call your doctor for any change in the color of your urine or new muscle weakness

Question 7

firm pea sized lump on upper thigh. painless, and right under the skin. cant be seen, only felt. scared its a sarcoma!? please reassure me?

Accepted Answer

Pea sized lump  : Under the skin, we can find lumps from an enclosed skin infection, non concerning fibrous changes, a neurofibroma, and several other things. Most of the time they are of no concern. Adult fibrosarcoma is rare. You should see your doctor, on rare occasions, a doctor may want to be sure and take it out for analysis.

Question 8

what causes a tight feeling in upper thigh, and groin area?

Accepted Answer

Unknown: A mass in the groin could be a hernia. Could be muscle strain. We would need more information to be helpful. Is one thigh bigger than the other? Does it hurt anywhere. How long has it been going on. If it gets worse or you start to have bad groin pain you should see a doctor immediately.

Question 9

can sacroiliac pain be in groin and upper thigh on both sides?

Accepted Answer

Yes but: Typically, this pain is localized in the posterior buttock region & can refer down to the upper back part of your thighs & sometimes into the groin but this could be hip joint pain if in groins & the front of your thighs.  Other spinal regions that refer to the groin are the facet joints at l5-s1 & a high level disc problem like l1-2 level.  If the pain is restricting your activities get evaluated.

Question 10
