Question 4

Accepted Answer

Might be an abcess: you may have a perianal abcess which needs treatment
hot baths for now and try to see doc
the painful lymph in the groin is probably a reaction to the abcess

Question 5

swollen lymph nodes in left groin, tender to touch.

Accepted Answer

You need to see MD: Swollen tender lymph node is sign of infection or inflammation. In this particular region they drain the genital area and part of the thigh, that means it could be an infection or inflammation in those areas. I would recommend seeing a physician, specially if you have been sexually active or have any genital ulcer/lesion. I hope you will feel better.

Question 6

i have had lower back pain for a few weeks it hurts when i turn over in  bed and try to stand after sitting and i keep getting tenderness in my groins?

Accepted Answer

See below: These symptoms can only be adequately diagnosed only after a thorough evaluation by your doctor.  This may include labs and other satudies.  Once all of the information is in, your doctor can let you know what's going on, and what to do to help you.

Question 7

what are possible dx for swollen tender lymphnodes in groin and elbow crease on one side of body only - not stds. hashimotos?

Accepted Answer

Local infections: Swollen glands, or lymph nodes, drain infections from the nearby region.  Hashimoto thyroiditis would not be a leading cause of swollen glands.

Question 8

i'm a female with with right side pelvic groin tenderness radiating down my leg with mild ankle swelling what could this be ?

Accepted Answer

Fibroids: Is a possibility. However, a proper exam is in order, consult a doc for an exam.

Question 9

groin tender to touch on 7 year old boy on one side. no lump or swollen gland. very active and acting fine otherwise. could it be a strain?

Accepted Answer

Hernia?: The child should be evaluated by a doctor for possible hernia in the near future. If the pain is testicular or scrotal, then he needs to be evaluated immediately for possible torsion of the testis.

Question 10

what should i do if i have a tender lump in the groin area?

Accepted Answer

Get it checked out: It is most likely a small lymphnode or a cyst, but bacterial infection with klebsiella ganulomatis is possible, often starts as small, painless nodules appearing after  10–40 days following contact with the bacteria. Later the nodules burst, creating open, fleshy, oozing, and infection continues to destroy the tissue until treated. Not to scare u, but should consult doc if worsens. Good luck.
