Is Swelling Of Lymph Nodes Near Thighs,a Matter Of Concern?
Hi I fell last week off a stool. I fell on top of the stool and fell back. I heavily bruised the inner parts of my thighs with heavy bruising. Now the bruising has gone down I am now left with swollen lumps on the inner parts of my thigh. Should I be worried as the lumps hurts?

Hi. The lumps are lymphnodes in the groin that are helping to clear the bruising and eliminate dead tissue of infection. They will be painful as they are swollen, but they should get smaller as you heal. My opinion is just have a doctor examine and see if you are not developing abscesses as that may be a cause for concern. Hope that answers your question. Get well.
