HelloThanks for query. Pain in groin with enlarged lymph node revealed on C. T Scan needs to be investigated further. What was the histopathological report of Prostate pathology ? Was it a cancer prostate OE Benign Enlargement of prostate ? The cause of pain cans not consider to be a part of healing process but has to be suspected to be due to some primary focus of infection in pelvic cavity or secondary to malignancy of s pelvic organ. Consult qualified General surgeon or Urologist for clinical examination and further tests like M.R.I, Fine Needle Biopsy of lymph node (If required)to trace out the reason for enlarged lymph node. Further treatment will be decided by him based on final diagnosis. Chat Doctor.
