Too large a frame sure won't help, but I doubt it's the cause of your discomfort, unless you've already lowered the saddle all the way and you're still struggling to reach the pedals. The bigger issue with marginally out-sized frames is a longer top tube, putting the bars farther out of reach and messing with your position/posture.
I'm still having a bit of difficulty understanding the nature of the discomfort. When I think of groin pain, I think of pain in the musculature from the crotch area down into the inside of the thigh. I get the feeling from your description it's more of a genital issue. Is that right? How old are you? I ask because if you're old enough to be into enlarged prostate territory, some saddles (and their positions) can exacerbate the problem causing increased pressure on the bladder and a feeling of having to urinate. At least they have for me. Of course, if I completely misunderstood your description, then you can ignore all that.
