What should I do if there is a hard lump in the right groin area, slightly to the left?

Patient's question:

Daughter is 3 and a half years old. The past two days, while bathing her, I noticed a hard lump (about the size of a chicken egg yolk) in the right groin area, slightly to the left, which can be palpated without causing pain. The parents are very anxious! Could you please ask the expert what this could be? Urgently looking forward to your reply! Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Regarding your daughter's condition, it's difficult for us to provide a definite answer here. Is the lump movable? It's best to have her checked by a surgeon at the hospital.
Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, don't panic. You should take your child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, ensure regular check-ups for your child and use medication reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.
