Lump on the inner thigh of a woman

The appearance of a lump on the inner side of a woman's thigh may be caused by a lipoma or skin growth. When a woman suffers from skin hyperplasia or nodules, this situation is also likely to occur. You can pay more attention to changes in the condition. If you feel uncomfortable or the lump increases, you need to seek medical treatment in time.

What is a lump on the inner thigh of a woman?

Some lumps appear on the inner side of the female thigh root, which is relatively common in clinical practice, including the following reasons:

1. Superficial lipomas, fibromas or sebaceous cysts on the skin will cause oval or round lumps to appear at the roots without obvious tenderness or swelling.

2. For deep lumps, especially at the root, they may be reducible tumors caused by femoral hernia or inguinal hernia. The lump disappears when lying down, but reappears when standing or walking. This is a common type of hernia for women. 3. For some women, pelvic inflammatory disease or inflammation caused by the endometrium can cause enlarged lymph nodes on the inner side of the thigh root, where there will be obvious lumps accompanied by symptoms such as redness, swelling, and pain. Therefore, if a woman has a lump at the base of her thigh, especially on the inner side, she must undergo a detailed examination to find the exact cause and receive systematic and standardized treatment based on the cause.

There are many reasons for lumps on the inner thigh of women. If the lump is soft, it may be caused by a sebaceous cyst, local skin hyperplasia, or lipoma. If it feels hard to the touch, it may be caused by lymphadenitis or swollen lymph nodes, which is accompanied by pain. The inner thigh root, also known as the groin area, has many lymph nodes, which are usually not palpable under normal circumstances. However, when there is inflammation or secondary tumors, infections, etc., the lymph nodes will swell. Another situation is femoral hernia in women. Women are prone to femoral hernia, which often occurs on the inner side of the thigh. It can be reduced by pressing with hands and can bulge out when coughing or standing for a long time.
