Question about a lump near the groin

Ive been looking for somewhere to ask about this and here seems like a good place, I apologise in advance if it isnt.

Around this time last week I noticed a pain, like a bruise, next to my bladder (about halfway up the crease between my leg and my groin). I didnt notice anything there until Monday when I discovered a slightly painful lump where the pain had been. As the week has progressed the pain has gotten less and now Im left with a small hard lump that moves around under the skin if I press or feel it. There's no pain that seems to be associated with it and Im not ill in any way.

From what Ive read its most likely a swollen gland or a fatty deposit but I though Id ask anyway and I plan to see a doctor if it hasnt gone by the end of this week. I just thought Id ask to see what other opinions I can get.

Any suspicous lesion that doesn't go away should be examined by your medical team. So if you're worried, seek professional help.
