I once had a lump in my groin too and waited about a few days thinking it would "jsut go away." Then my neck glands swelled and I went to the doctor. While I was there I mentioned the groin bump. This is what he told me:
If you EVER have a lump/bump in the groin area you are to go to the ER ASAP. You never mess with this. 9/10 x it is something serious. In my case it was an infected my case it was an infected lymph node. But the ER told me I did the right thing because you cannot diagnose this area in a doctors office.
Do not wait until you wake up from your nap...go NOW. This is cause for a true ER visit!
(off my soapbox now)

It feels like a pain i have had before when i haven't got the femeral vain staright away but it has gone on for 2 days now! nothing looks out of place accept anabcess i have near my knee but i am taking anti-biotics for that! I have taken some ibuprofen and paracetomal and this seems to have helped and i have said to myself if im in pan when i wake up i'll go straight to casualty, thankyou for you commments!
I agree with everyone above....PLEASE go to the ER ASAP! We want you to be ok. I hope you have already left and aren't reading my words....if you are reading them please GO to the ER!

I dont think they will interfere with anything other than the problem physically as I have been in the er before with similiar not exact but drug reprecussions and they just fixed the problem I suggest you get in there asap... Mike
I agree w/avisg. you need to make sure you aren't hemorrhaging into that area. If you are on methadone, it isn't working so by going in, you may actually get the help you need, and that will work for you. Regardless of whether you're an addict or not, you have a life threatening situation here. Go in and get checked out!
I suggest you go to the doctor or the ER what happens if there is a blot clot there ? Fear is not worth losing your life over .Plz take care of you :)
