Brief Answer:
It could be enlarged Lymph node

Detailed Answer:
Hi
As per your description,it could be an Enlarged Inguinal lymph node.
Ultrasound abdomen may not cover that area.
I prefer Ultrasound of the swollen area.It gives a clue.
Another possibility is Lipoma, i.e swelling arising from Fat.
It is usually painless.
If Ultrasound is inconclusive,then I prefer FNAC (FINE NEEDLE ASPIRATION CYTOLOGY).Here,a syringe is introduced into the swelling and the Aspirate is examined under Microscope.Exact diagnosis will be known.
Please consult your doctor and proceed further.
Please post the pic if you do not have any Objection.
Nothing to worry.
Hope I answered your query.If you have any questions,I will clarify further.
Wish you good health
Regards
