44 Year Old Worried About Pain In Groin While Walking
i have pain while walking in my groin area..the pain is all the time, sitting standing but alot while walking. i broke my back 30 years ago L2. I had a chance fracture which required harrington rods. 2 years later the rods where removed due to calcium build up around them so they were cut out. The fusion is rubbing from breakdown..degenerative disc. I have bulged disc and bone spurs and scar tissue. I have a numb left leg that i have burning in. I do not take narcotics at all. I got cortisone and anesthetic in the nerve and it worked for 2 years. It still burns but I can tolerate it. I lost 56 pounds and I feel that helped. But I do have a hemorrhoid and sometimes I get a charlie horse there in that location. It is kind of embarrassing to say that. But know I seem to be pulling my groin muscle. If that s what you call it. I was just diagnosed with hip arthritis as well. I am 44 and I had a complete hysterectomy at 29 with ovaries and cervix removed, I do not take estrogen and my bone density is good. But this pain in the muscle I am thinking is bad. Getting worse. Not sure what it is
hi going through tour clinical picture and old history , I am more inclined to think that your present problem ( pain in the hip while walking) is mainly due to arthritis in the hip.I would recommend anti inflammatory pain killers + a stick while walking if possible. Also you may require Hip replacement if pain persists.
