Suggest Treatment For A Lump In The Groin

I have a knot in my groin area, on my panty line. I thought it may be an ingrown hair, but it s not. It s kind of hard and seems like it s bigger than it was. no head on it, like a pimple, could it be a boil? it s not round either, it s kind of long. what in the world is it?

Thanks for sharing your problem here on this forum. Lump in the groin is mostly inguinal hernia if it increases in size on standing or coughing. But if it's painful and you are having fever then it's a boil. Better to see your surgeon for proper diagnosis. Keep asking questions from me. Thanks
