A member asked:

Lump in groin but it doesn't hurt. could it be lymphoma?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes, it could: Be hernia or enlarged lymph node, hard to tell sometimes. Lymph node enlargement can be caused by benign or malignant problems. Consult your doctor for immediate evaluation.

Groin lump: A lump in the groin could represent an enlarged lymph node or could be an inguinal (groin) hernia. It is difficult to tell the difference yourself, and should be evaluated by a doctor. Groin lymph nodes could rarely represent a lymphoma.
