What Does Swelling In The Pelvis On The Left Side Indicate?

I have swelling in my left pelvis area, maybe an inch above and to the left of the base of my penis. I went to the doctor to see if I had a hernia but was told no. It is not painful but kind of feels like gas. I first noticed the symptom a few months ago and it went away. About two weeks ago I noticed it again and it has persisted and not gone away and seems to get more swollen as the day goes on and for the most part goes away when I sleep. The swelling is quite noticeable relative to my right side. When I starin to make a bowel movement I can also notice it.
