Hi,Good Evening.Thanks for the query to HCM.I studied it in depth and I understood your health concerns.
-Cause -for groin lump with pain and redness with tender nodes-
1-This could be mostly due to-Genetic-herpes type 2 ulcers on penis with secondary infection? Soft chancer?, which needs to be fixed before treating it.
2-You need to consult a dermatologist for it,who would treat it accordingly-by Valacyclovir or by doxycycline.
3-Dont get scared and uneasy,but be cautious and act fast.
Hope this would help you a lot to relieve you.
Wish you fast recovery-and healthy life.
Wellcome to HCM with more queries till you are satisfied.
Have a Good Day...!!
