What Causes Lumps Along With Swelling On Either Side Of The Groin?

Hi, I m experiencing swelling on both sides of my groin area. They are penny size lumps and very tender to touch. Also, about 3 days ago a rash formed on my hips, lower stomach and inner thigh. Painful urination and slight pink color (possibly blood) should I seek emergency medical care or do these symptoms occur for UTI?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have lumps along with swelling on either side of the groin . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like swollen lymph gland , hernia sexually transmitted infections or saphena varix. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor will examine physically and check for tenderness and consistency , take sample for lab test and prescribe antibacterial or anti viral depending upon the diagnosis . Doctor may also prescribe anti inflammatory and vitamin supplement for quick healing . For now take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain and apply warm compresses . Wear loose cloths and apply moisturizer .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
