Probable lymph node: The area you are describing seems to be your groin. The hard structure you feel is likely a lymph node. If you get an allergic reaction or infection in and around your rectum, vagina and or in your legs these nodes get bigger causing them to get painful. When the cause for them to increase resolves, they shrink and are no longer painful. Lymph nodes prevent infection spread. If concerned, see MD
