And I take no kind of medication pain pills or anything else the only thing that has happened is that I was playing basketball and called the groin muscle and then that’s when I noticed I started having this problem doesn’t make any sense to me that would have any affect on it, mostly I am very healthy this is the first time I’ve ever had any kind of issue in this area

Brief Answer:
Apply topical steroid and antihistaminic

I would recommend you to apply topical steroid cream like cortisone cream or clobetasol propionate on the affected area twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg twice daily for 10 days.
