Extremely painful and swollen/tender inguinal lymph node in left groin area. about 2.5 inches long and growing. no know injuries or infections. ?

See a doctor.: That sounds like it needs to be seen. Nodes can get infected but there are also glands in the same area that get infected. Either way tender enlarging lesions need to be seen. You may need antibiotics or even drainage and packing.
