I was moing my sofa the other day and I noticed 2 days later a knot came up in my inner thigh where my thigh connects to my body. Can you tell me if I have a pulled muscle?

Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Aashish Raghu's  Response
Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Good Day
It's possible you could be having a hernia. The swelling would usually increase in size on coughing, straining. It would be best to avoid lifting weights and see a Surgeon to tell if it's a lymph node, hernia or other swellings. Hernia would need surgical removal.
