Suggest Treatment For Small Lump On Groin

Hi I have an invisible small lump on my groin at the crease before me upper thigh... There is no mark or swelling but when pressed there is a hard lump. I have noticed the lump for around 2 days. I haven t experienced pain during the day only a slight discomfort when I press it. Without touching it and applying pressure I wouldn t know it was there

Hello and welcome.

It is difficult to comment on the possible cause without a physical examination. I would thus recommend either consulting a doctor physically or writing back to me using our premium service wherein you can attach images to our discussion.

In the meantime, all I can really say is that the lump and the location do raise doubt of this being an STD, and particular caution should be raised if at all you have had a positive history of unsafe sexual contact.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
