What Causes A Painful Lump On The Side Of My Groin?

I have developed a painful lump on the left side of my groin. After a couple of weeks coughing with a chest infection being unable to clear phlegm from chest. I have had a heavy full feeling for a couple of days and this morning I have this painful lump?
Should I wait for Monday when my surgery is open or go to A&E today?
