What Is The Knot Feeling Lump Near Top Inside Of Right Hip?

At the top inside of right hip I found a weird knot feeling lump.I told my mom about it and she told me to just wait and see if it would go away.I thought I might have hit it on something or pulled a muscle but I don't remember doing that.It only hurts when I press on it and now it has a slight bruise over it.Ive never had a lump there before so I'm puzzled what it is.I'm a 16 year old girl by the way.

I. If I can understand the position you mentioned , this looks to an inflamed and enlarged lymph node.
I think you should better show this the Doctor as you may need a course of an antibiotic and supportive medicines which are usually a prescription medicines.
See the results for 7 days of a course.
If this settles within 7 days , nothing to worry about it.
If it persists or creates more problems you may need further investigations and management
