i would call a doctor, things that get worse and more painfull needs attention. i don't think the cough had anything to do with it, but im not a doctor, it may of been just a happen around the time you coughed. have you had unperotected sex with anyone? do call a doctor ask them what to do.
No I've had sex with only my husband. I had no symptoms at all before this. When I woke up, It just started as a pain on the inside of the left lip. I felt it and there was no lump. Within a few hours pain got worse and the lump begain to grow as did the pain.
could be a femoral hernia.they are usually located around that area.
