Groin pain

William Doyle2 said:Man, doesn't a hernia show up in the gut area? I’ve actually had two surgeries myself back when I was a kid, and those scars are way below the waistline. My pain is hitting right where my legs meet my torso, specifically on the inner side.

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...

Back to the topic: I'm still in pain... what happens if it actually is that syndrome? When does it go away?
