What Causes Cyst On The Groin With Pain?

Husband has a large, painful groin what he thinks is a cyst, sebaceous perhaps. It is near the fold where is underwear elastic meets his leg. It is becoming larger each day, more painful. He doesn t have an appointment a surgeon until the first of May. Should he go to an ER in the meantime? He is getting more uncomfortable each day that goes by.
