What Could Cause Swollen Lymph Node On Groin?

Hi, I have this swollen lymph node in my left groin and it has been there for a month now. I am worried what could this be. It is about an inch but it's not painful every time I touch it. I'm having diarrhea (occasionally) and I'm itching just now. I am just curious what is this.

Hi,
It seems that you might be having some infection in surrounding area of groin like dermatitis, fungal infection or chronic ingrown hair follicle infection.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The pain less lymph node at the groin,represents the old infection, and the in spite of subsiding infection, it would have remained.
The infection might be in the genitals, groin, or perineum etc.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ofloxacin, serratiopeptidase, diclofenac sodium, and ascorbic acid,
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
