small lump on upper thigh near groin?

I have recently discovered a small lump on my upper thigh i was wondering if it could be a swollen lymph node or even something more serious as a hernia i dont know what it is but its located in the femoral region were someone would get a hernia only thing is that this lump is so tiny its not visible i had to feel around to find it but its definitely there it doesn't really hurt at all im just scared of what it could be also i do alot of heavy weight lifting but ive never had any problems, also im not sure if it is a swollen lymph node because i read those appear when you have an infection of some kind and i do get cysts in my groin area close to the swollen part on my thigh so im just not sure what it is can anyone help me?
