Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic!

It may be swollen gland or enlarged lymph node or even inguinal hernia. However, a Physical examination is mandatory to assess this since there are variety of other causes that needs to be ruled out.

Enlarged lymph nodes may be due to reaction to pain or any small infection in lower limb.
