I'd treated scanty yielded staphylococcus sometimes in February and I completed my dosage as prescribed.. One thing I notice is that lymphs/ nodes grow on my groin. First started on the left leg then after some weeks, it grows on my right leg.. Though, its not painful at all.. I really bothered.. I need help

Hello,

You have Staphylococcus infection for which you're on antibiotic treatment.
You had been treated for it in the past also.
So the infection is recurrent.
Now you have Bilateral lymph node swelling in the inguinal region not associated with pain but increases in size.
This may be due to the ongoing infection and you can wait until you're cured of the infection completely.
If it still persists after the treatment evaluation is needed.
