Lump in groin

[Anonymum221]

Hi, just looking for some reassurance! I noticed a lump in DD groin around 3 weeks ago, took her to the GP who said it looked liked a swollen lymph node. Was told to return after 2 weeks to see if there was any changes and when I went back, GP said it looked like it hadn’t gotten any smaller. Have been referred to paediatrician but does anyone know what it could be if it isn’t a swollen lymph node? I’m aware it COULD still be the lymph node but I just feel so anxious and worried about my baby. DD is fine otherwise no temperature or night sweats.

Ds used to have swollen glands virtually permanently he was checked blood tests and everything the only thing they ever found was slight anemia

I’m hoping it’s nothing 2 worry about! DD is 7 months and only had this for a few weeks but it’s a hard lump. Hoping the paediatricians will have a look at her and not turn away the referral and it doesn’t take too long also!!

Hi OP. Did you find out what this was? Thank you x

Hi sorry, I know I’m about a year late responding, but it was just a swollen lymph node! DD had a blood test and and everything was clear (aside from being anaemic)
