Brief Answer:
Possible diagnoses and suggestions
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM,
There are several reasons why a lump like that may come:
-- Athletes feet in the past months/weeks
-- Skin infection nearby
-- Herpes genital infection
-- Blood disease
-- Testicular cancer
Especially the 2 last one are very important to rule out, because they are important problems that need to rule out as soon as possible, and because your lump does not seem inflammatory (not painful, hard, immobile) so that is suspicious.
Consider doing a visit to an XXXXXXX to rule out a problem in the testicles, and do a complete blood count for ruling our the blood diseases that give lumps in the groin.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need any more clarification.
Take care,
Dr. Papaqako
