Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have enlarged inguinal lymphnode. Mostly it is due to some infection and reactive hyperplasia. You should go for a course of antibiotics. If it doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable.
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. Wish you a very good health.
