What Causes Swollen Lymph Nodes In Groin Area?

Hello, I've had a single swollen groin lymph node for four months. The node is small but painful and the back of my upper leg is painful as well. I had a doctor take a look at it and he said he did feel a chain of shoddy nodes. I'm worried that this could be lymphoma. The pain is hot and the back of my leg feels as though I've pulled a muscle although I haven't. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
