I will be better able to help, if I have some more information. Can you please answer few questions to come to a diagnosis:
1)Is it present on both sides of groin?
2)What is the size of swelling?
3)Does it decrease on lying down position? or increase on walking or doing heavy work?
4)Do you have fever? is there any redness on that swelling area?
Have you undergone any scan?
