A member asked:

Can shaving the groin area cause a painless lump?

Dr. Sheila Calderon answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Depends: Your hair may be ingrown because it is curly and that may cause the problem. Other causes of bumps in the groin area may have to do with the lymph nodes and infections. See your doctor if it is larger than an ingrown hair.
