Hello,
Pain and discomfort in the lower left belt line (waist) and tightness in the groin area aggravated by lifting anything is indicative of hernia (inguinal). You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP to detect if its inguinal hernia,
femoral hernia (rare), hiatal hernia, bursitis,
muscle pain, injury to the tendons in the legs can cause
radiating pain to the groin area or kidney issues / UTI.
Get
Urinalysis, CBC and the required Imaging tests done (Abdominal USG, MRI, CT). Your treatment (surgery,
physiotherapy) will depend on the severity of your clinical symptoms and the pathology detected. For relieve of pain you can take NSAIDS, Naproxen, one SOS when needed.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
