HI.
Since you have a bruising in the same right side of the foot and a lump in the groin, this may be due to an infection being transmitted from the foot to the groin Lymph Node.
A course of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines should help resolve both the problems.
If this is not resolved within 1 week you may need an FNAC of the mass and get confirmed about the diagnosis and treatment.
