What Is A Movable, Tender Knot In Right Groin Suggestive Of?

My daughter (25) told me she noticed a pea-sized knot in her right groin that s tender to touch. No other symptoms (nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, or redness in area). The knot is somewhat movable. She does Crossfit regularly, so exercises, lifts weights, etc.

Hi,

It could be a swollen lymph node only. Generally it will settle by itself. A short course of antibiotics can be tried. If it persists you can consult a physician and plan for an FNAC.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
