What Does A Lump In Groin Indicate?
I've been seen by two doctors, now. I have a bony lump, roughly the size of a golfball in my groin. It is painless, except when confronted with significant pressure. My doctor has confirmed it is a tumor. What is the likelihood that it may be cancerous? Are there cancers that start as lumps in the groin, particularly that large?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have hard enlarged lump in groin area. It can be metastatic carcinoma, lymphoma or soft tissue tumor. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
