Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your groin swelling and under active thyroid is not related. Thyroid has no relation with them.
Your groin swelling can be due to reactive lymph node, tuberculous lymph node, lymphoma, metastatic carcinoma or some other tumour. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact idea. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. if you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
wish you very good health.
