Lump

A lump has recently got larger just above the left corner of my pubic hair line. There are similar lumps on the other side but they're not quite as enlarged and they don't cause any pain. I think it could be a swollen gland of some kind but am really unsure about it. It seems to separate from the lumps that are present on the other side. I think it has appeared in the past and then gone down again but its never caused me pain before.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice, I am sexually active and think its probably a good idea to go and see my doctor at some point.

Thanks again

It's probably a swollen lymph node. Are you sexually active? You may want to see your doctor and just get things checked out.
Best wishes.
