Cause Of Painful Lump Near Upper Thigh?

First I am diabetic type 2 for more then 10 years now. I have been having pain in my upper left thigh right below the crease. on the front of the thigh. I got exrays showed nothing. When I lay on my left side it hurts in my upper thigh.. if I sit indian style it hurts if I walk to much it throbs and hurts.. although I have been dealing with that as I need to exersize. My doctor tells me its cause I am fat.. I hate her. Now I find a oblong smaller then a grape size lump where the pain radiates from. I just dont know what it could be .. it makes the whole top of my thigh ache to the top of my knee, I have good circulation no numbness no pins and needles feelings.

As you had pain first followed by a swelling, it could be cellulitis now progressed to lymphadenitis. However other swellings such as lipoma or neurofibroma can not be ruled out without examining you.
