Hard Lump In The Groin Area With Bruising. On Contraceptive Pill. Any Help?
I have a hard lump in my groin area, about the size of 2 almonds. It began as a small lump & has continued to get bigger over a 5 month period. The skin is starting to turn a brownish, purple colour. It is tender to touch & is becoming more tender & uncomfortable over the last 2 weeks. I am a 31 year old female with no major health concerns, the contraceptive pill is the only medication I take.

HI
Thank for choosing HCM, this could be a solitary lymphnode, for better diagnosis other area should be examine properly, if there is no such swelling of LN then this could be a bacterial infection, take some anti inflammatory drug< Ibuprofen would be better, do not go for antibiotic until & unless it is highly indicative ,, hope it will come around,,, Have nice day
