[quote=Anonymous]This is an old thread (who resurrected it?!) but I had similar symptoms to OP and some PPs (painful cyst in groin region) and it was a bartholin cyst: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartholin's_cyst (Warning: picture of labia on that page, so NSFW) After seeing my GYN, who diagnosed it (and told me I would need surgery to drain it) I did some research and took sitz baths twice a day with a warm compress for about an hour at night. Resolved on its own (burst in the shower painlessly and drained, never to return) after about 2-3 weeks of daily sitz baths and compresses. However, for anything regarding a lump, it's always best to see your doctor. But many, many benign tumors occur near skin folds and ducts (like the groin region) and it's best not to panic before getting a real diagnosis. Not to mention, something acute (the lump popped up suddenly) is much more likely to be a fluid-filled cyst than a slow-growing cancer.[/quote]
