I am hoping for some help with a lump on the female groin. It is red, large, but flat (sort of). I was guessing it was just a weird kind of bruise, like from clothing, at first but now the lump is still there and I am starting to be concerned about the issue. So advice is appreciated!
Hi! It could be a Lymph node enlargement. The most common cause of enlarged lymph nodes is infection. As lymph nodes are a part of the immune system that fights infections in the body, the presence of infection often causes lymph nodes to increase in size. All kinds of infections can cause node enlargement. Some other immune diseases like sarcoidosis or lupus can also cause lymph node enlargement all over the body. You should get it checked by your doctor.
