Why Is The Lymph Node In My Groin Swollen?
Hi my names emily. A couple of days ago I noticed that my right groin lymph node is swollen and right by that lymph node my upper leg is tender. When it first started bothering me it felt like it was shooting pain up my lower Stomach and now it's just a really uncomfortable pain. I've had mono 3years ago but I didn't have a problem with those lymph nodes in the groin area I just want to know what is wrong with me

Welcome to HCM.
Swollen groin lymph node is usually due to infective drainage from the surrounding area.
It may swell from an injury or infection in the foot, leg, groin, or genitals.
You have to start proper antibiotic like moxifloxacin and nsaid to subside upper leg pain and inflammation.
It will subside within 5 to 7 days otherwise consult your family physician for further guidance.
