Hello
Thanks for query .
You have undergone surgery for Cyst in groin 3 days back and now getting severe pain and swelling in groin and pain while walking .
This is natural to happen due to inflammation of subcutaneous tissue ,However you need to visit he operating surgeon for assessment and to rule out infection .
Continue taking antibiotic and anti inflammatory medicine like Diclofenac twice daily .
Hope it should get resolved within a week .
