What Causes Painful Lumps Between Thigh And Groin?
Hi, i'm 20 yrs old 160-165 lbs, male, i'm really active/athletic and do run from time to time and usually on a workout routine. After going for a run two days ago I notice a lump fairly large about an inch in between my inner thighs, on my left leg following my genital area. It is painful when touched or rubs my other leg while walking or running and clearly swollen and I have no idea what it could be. But it did occur after a my run two days ago.

This is acute inguinal lymphadenitis caused by infection from the groin/ genital area. Go to your doctor and he will prescribe an antibiotic and an analgesic
