What Causes Irritating Lump On Hip?

Sudden lump on hip, closer to left groin area. Comes and goes for the last 3 months or so but always is colored like a bruise going away, greenish. Slight irritation when I press on it. In the last month I ve noticed same area numb or tingly. Don t want to get laughed at in the dr office so any suggestion you could provide would be great!

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have inguinal lymphnode enlargement. It may be due to reactive hyperplasia due to some infection or it may be dur to some other cause like tuberculosis.
You should go for examination. If needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology of lump and search the exact cause.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
