It was some old resistance movement... blah blah blah... Communist Youth League... blah blah... all the secretaries died... and that's it. That's my take. I'm more interested in Savannah...
Taylor Brown61 said:I know—if I focus hard enough, I can probably name seven Savannahs!
That’s just as important (not that anyone cares)... 😳
👍 New ones, old ones, Sućurac, Gomilica, Kambelovac... I don't even know anymore... maybe small and large versions... 😁 I didn't even realize why they mattered until recently... and honestly, I've realized they only matter because they're dead. Wow... big news...

Basically, groin pain boils down to tendon inflammation in the adductor longus or the abdominal muscles. If it gets bad enough, you're looking at degenerative issues in the pubic symphysis. It’s a high-stress zone where different kinetic forces meet. Getting the balance between the adductor and abdominal muscles is of great importance, along with maintaining enough elasticity in the pubic symphysis to allow for that slight 2 mm movement and 3-degree rotation. A lot of times, this stems from the weakness of the abdominal muscle wall—what people often call a "sportsman's hernia." Groin pain is the most common in soccer players, affecting about 6% of them here in the States. While most authors believe that the main cause of groin pain is the adductor muscle overload, athletes usually just notice a dull ache starting to set in during activity. When checking this out, the adductor test is key. You have the patient lie on their back with their hips flexed at 80 degrees and abducted. If they feel a sharp sting while trying to pull their legs against resistance, the test is positive... The treatment of groin pain is complex and individual since everyone's situation is different. Generally, gradual physical therapy combined with pharmacotherapy should be effective in most cases. That usually means using NSAIDs or muscle relaxants alongside a PT routine focused on stretching and strengthening the adductors, abs, iliopsoas, quads, and hamstrings. If those don't do the trick, surgery becomes the next step, depending on what's actually causing the issue...
You're absolutely right, everything is much clearer now... 😂
It’s not like my junk hurts or anything, it’s just the area around it... feels like some kind of muscle inflammation—but like I said before, it really should have cleared up by now.
For the last week, I’ve been sitting with my laptop on my lap for a few hours every day... maybe there's a connection there?
I mean, come on, doesn't a hernia show up in the gut area? I've already had two surgeries myself back when I was a kid, and those scars are way below the waist... but what I'm feeling is right where my legs meet my torso, on the inner side...
I've been dealing with this groin pain for about a week now... I was lugging some heavy gear down a flight of stairs last Saturday, so that might be the culprit—but can something like that actually linger for seven days? Usually, if I strain something, it clears up in a day or two.
The projector setup on stage was a cool touch, but everything else was just awful.
I can't stand them, honestly. I don't get how they fit into the whole vibe... My only theory is that it’s all a cash grab—they probably did it at the arena just because the crowds kept drenching them in beer, and they wanted to capitalize on it.
$4.25 'A pint' (yeah, right. More like a small sample and a lot of foam)😲
They had me doing that back in elementary school, and I stuck with it for about a year before I just couldn't take it anymore.
The biggest issues were: -finding the time to actually go -the waiting rooms are always massive -the nurses can be pretty rough, like they have a personal vendetta against you -your arm swells up and hurts (though, honestly, I don't know if you'll react the same way)
There aren't many upsides. I mean, maybe you get better in the end—but I just didn't have the patience for it...
