Hi there.
If you are having pain and some swelling in the groin on coughing, it could be a hernia. Avoid coughing hard, constipation. Eat healthy, keep well hydrated. I suggest you consult your Surgeon for a proper diagnosis and treatment. Take pain killer like Diclofenac for relief from the pain. Apply hot water bottle or cold sponging, whichever offers you relief over the area.
