Can Long Break In The Intercourse Cause Swollen Groin And Lump?
i have a swollen groin glad and a swollen lump just outside my anal hole together with some sores around it, i have had this in the past but have never had it checked out. Recently had sex with my husband after a long break due to young child but dont know if this has any relevance.

Hi.
The groin lumps can very well be lymph nodes secondary to trivial injuries one gets during intercourse after a long gap.
The lump outside the anal whole may have different pathology (unless there was fiddling) This may be a cellulitis,/ boil/ prolapsed pile.
You have to undergo a proper clinical examination to be done by a Doctor who can catch many of the problems on your proper history and physical examination and can then guide for further investigations and treatment.
