I am a 23 year old male. I have an olive sized lump on my left groin area. Its mostly painless though I would say that it recently has caused some very mild discomfort. It's been there for at least 10 days without any noticeable change in size. There is no skin discoloration. I find that when I'm laying down, the lump is not noticeable and seems "to have gone away". In fact, It seems as if it's not always there. I have even noticed times when standing when the lump was not present. I can push the lump down, but when I let go, it bulges back to its original position. One month ago I was diagnosed with shingles. I treated the diagnosis as instructed and all symptoms seem to have disappeared.
Hi, From history it seems that you might be having developing inguinal hernia called Bubonocele. Due to weak inguinal ring or lax abdominal muscles some fat or tissues or a part of intestine protrudes out. consult surgeon and get examined. Avoid constipation and cough reflex. Ok and take care.
