Pain In The Groin. Hardened Muscle In The Buttocks With Pain. What Is It?

I started having pain in my left glute and left groin a few days ago, and now it's a ring of pain extending around those two areas. It's painful to the touch, and on my left buttock, there's hardened muscle forming on the left buttock. If it's not hardened muscle, then it's hardened skin. There's also an indent forming on the buttock.
