What Causes Lump And Swollen Vein In Groin Area?

I have a golf ball sized lump in the right side of my groin, where the leg and the pubic area meet, it has been there for almost a week. The past couple days I noticed my pubic bone area has been tender and now seems to have a swollen vein that goes to the clitoris. I was wondering what this could be and if it needs to be treated by a doctor?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some mass or hernia. It can be easily differentiated by examination.
If it is hernia then you need surgery like meshplasty.
If it is mass then you should go for fine needle aspiration cytology of that lump. it can be benign or malignant lesion. Then you should take treatment according to your diagnosis.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
