Not lethal but: needs to be checked. It could well be a small swelling from injury, and can easily treated by the urologist. But most likely it is nothing to worry about.
I hope you get that checked and get an opinion.

Hurting for days?: Doesn't sound normal. You should get examined. You may have a hernia or the lump may be unrelated to your recent excercise. Better safe than sorry.
