What Causes Severe Pain In Upper Leg And Lump In Left Groin?
In June, 2013, I underwent emergency surgery to repair six tears in my right femoral and external îleac arteries following an angeogram. The operation went well and I made a full recovery. For the last 7 months, I have had a lot of pain in the upper leg. A lump has now appeared in my left groin. What should I do?

Hello,
As per my clinical experience, lump on left groin does indicate possible delayed hematoma formation. Following information are needed to evaluate the case as:
- Intake of any blood thinner as aspirin, clopidrogel or else.
- Atherosclerosis risk factors as smoking, diabetes if any
- Current status of dopplerwise blood flow to concerned territories
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.
