Hi,dear
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.

You have enlarged inguinal lymphnode.
It can be due to reactive hyperplasia of lymphnode. Which is most common cause.

Other cause are tuberculosis, lymphoma, metastatic carcinoma and many more.

You should complete your antibiotics treatment. If it doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable.

Hope I have answered your question.
If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me.
I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
