Hello,
Based on your description there could be a number of causes for the groin/leg pain on the left side. A small stone in the ureter that has passed on above from the kidney which is lodged in the ureter, can be responsible for this pain. Urinalysis, X-ray KUB/Ultrasound abdomen pelvis should be done. If none are found then neuromuscular disorders should be worked up. A physical exam would indicate whether its a leg/groin/hip joint issue or a back/spine problem. An MRI of the lumbosacral spine can be advised, based on the physical exam. In the meanwhile, antispasmodic medication can be added to the advil or Tylenol.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
