Your symptoms are caused by inguinal hernia. Due to weak spot in the abdominal wall, intestine and fatty tissue gets out of it and appears as a lump (can be small and hardly noticeable) in the groin. Very characteristic for hernia is pain when standing, coughing, lifting heavy objects. As hernia always increases risk of bowels obstruction or necrosis, it is good to have it diagnosed and repaired with surgery.

Unbearable Pain In Groin, Hurts While Pressing, During Bowel Movement. Got Off Periods
Hello! Thank you for the query. Your symptoms are caused by inguinal hernia. Due to weak spot in the abdominal wall, intestine and fatty tissue gets out of it and appears as a lump (can be small and hardly noticeable) in the groin. Very characteristic for hernia is pain when standing, coughing, lifting heavy objects. As hernia always increases risk of bowels obstruction or necrosis, it is good to have it diagnosed and repaired with surgery. Please visit general surgeon and have it checked. In case of doubts, ultrasound can be helpful. Hope this will help. Regards.
