How To Cure Pain Of Lymph Node In The Groin Area?
I have had a large bump that i thought was acutally a pulled muscle in my groin area/bikini line. I have had this since January 2014. At the doctor 2 weeks ago i asked about and he said it was my lymph node, it is about an 1 1/2 long and probably 1/2 wide. Since he said that it was my lymph node i am now concerned. I hurt while trying to do lunges or squats for about 3 weeks, it no longer hurts but will not shrink in size or go away.

IN short: Muscle pull cannot cause lymph node swelling
Explanation: Muscle pull cannot cause lymph node swelling. Initially antibiotics will be prescribed for lymph node swelling and if it perists after full course then biopsy is must to rule out other diseases.
So, visit a doctor if it still persists after many days taking antibiotics.
