Are Painful Lump On Groin And Sore Throat Related?

I have a very tender lump on my groin between where my right testicle and thigh meet. Its sore when touched or when I walk because of where it is and there is a small purple mark on it under the skin about the size of a pinhead. I also have a sore throat where it is hard to swallow which I believe they may be connected. Do I need to.consult a doctor or will it go away with my sore throat?

Studied your query in full depth of its details.Reviewed it in context of your health concerns.
Based On the facts, You mostly seem to suffer from-Mumps with Secondary Hydrocele due to Orchitis from Mumps/ or it could be 2 differrent entities.
USG of the testes would fix this dilemma.
Other causes like funiculitis with sore throat is also to be ruled out .
As I don't no your age / and other history,I would suggest Second Surgical Opinion from Surgeon or Uro-Surgeon to fix the relation between the 2.
This would resolve other causes for such a complaint and would treat it accordingly.
