My husband has had pain in his groin area for about 3 months now, has had hip XRay, very mild arthritis, has had ultra sound, nothing showing, no tears etc. Is much worse under pressure, like squatting, walking up stairs etc. Painful when lifting leg etc. Relief when hot pack is placed under lower back area.

Hi,Welcome to healthcare magic.After going through your query I think he is suffering from early osteoarthritis . What is his age? .Exercises, Cartisafe D once daily and analgesics (DICLOFENAC 100 MG SLOW RELEASE TABLETS) whenever pain is treatment.Sometimes vitamin D deficiency can aggravate this so serum vitamin D test is advised if it is low than vitamin D supplementation will be required.I think your query answered.Welcome to any follow up query.
