Suggest Treatments For Painful Lump Near Groin Area And Pain During Menstruation

I have a very painful menstrual cycle, shaking and dry heaving are not uncommon. I can't keep water down sometimes. Also, I get a hard painful lump right where my leg meets my groin area. The skin on that side of the pubic bone is very swollen. Should I be worried?

For painful menstroition tablet FLEXIN is the drug of choice. For painful lump u should use antibiotics of broad spectrum like Valosef (cephradin) but u should go for surgery if not treated by medicine

Pathologist and Microbiologist Dr. Shailja Puri's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM,
Pain during menstruation is called dysmenorrhea.
Dysmenorrhea is commonly experienced during normal menstrual cycles in majority of females.
You need to take mefenamic acid preparation or anti-spasmodic to control the pain.
The hard painful lump in the groin area could be due to a lymph node enlargement.
You need to consult your doctor for clinical examination of the lump.
An aspiration cytology of the lump may be required.
This investigation samples the cells from the lesion with a needle.
The cells are spread on a clean slide and stained.
The stained cells are examined to know the nature and character of the lesion.
Further management can be planned after knowing the result of the investigation.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja P Wahal
