Hi,I Reviewed your query.
The lump on your groin is sore and on inner thigh,is worry some as its recurring.It seems mostly a furuncle / boil,as its very uncomfortable.This lump is due to the heavy cycling and the probable friction causing bruises, leading to the painful lump in the groin.
You should be concerned as if it complicates to abscess stage, then it would stop your earnings from road push bike.
So take the treatment from ER doctor.
Hence I would advise you to consult ER Surgeon who would treat it after physical check up by anti-inflammatory and by antibiotics.
Still I would advise you to have a check up from your doctor to get the worry ruled out by a direct physical check up.
Hope this would relive your query satisfactorily.
Write excellent review and hit thanks if this has helped to resolve your issue.
Welcome again further for any query in this regard.
Have a good day.
