Can Working Out Too Hard Cause Lump Formation And Bruising?

Hello,My boyfriend has been having random bruising and knots all over his legs. He gets frequent colds and night sweats. Today he presented with a lump on his right side groin area. It's the size of a palm hand. I think this might be from lifting weights without stretching but in light of the constant bruising on his legs with no reason, we are concerned. It doesn't appear to be hernia like.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per my surgical experience, the condition is due to circulation related issues from excess work out. The lump groin is secondary to leg lesions, as reactionary enlargement of groin lymph nodes. I would suggest to consult with a photo of the same to get best evaluation possible and suggest guidelines further.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
