Hi
Welcome to HCM
Read your prob, lump on thigh as you mention the site of lump ,most probably due to eighter inguinal or femoral hernia. you should consult with surgeon. choice of treatment of such type of hernia is surgical correction. so consult with your doc n do as per advise.

General & Family Physician Dr. Anupama Rangaswamy's  Response
if you had discribed it more like its size, consistency, is it painfull, does the size decreases when you lye down... it would have helped. for now this lump may be a gland, hernia or even lipoma.
