What Does A Painful Lump In The Groin Area Indicate?

I am a 27 year old male. While in the shower a couple of days ago, I noticed a lump in my groin area on the left side. I thought it would go away, but it has increased in size and is very tender. It's painful when I walk or sit. I also have pain shooting down the outside of my left thigh that absolutely throbs when sitting or lying down. This pain has only begun in conjunction with the lump in my groin. Is this something I should be worried about and have checked out? Or am I just being paranoid? If I need to get it checked out, whom do I see? A urologist?
