Suggest Treatment For Pulled Groin Muscle And Low Grade Fever
I have what feels like a pulled groin muscle(s), but I also have a low grade fever. I exercise but there is not a specific incident that I believe would have caused me to strain the muscle this much. It hurts to walk. What type of doctor should I go to
Thank you for contacting me at "Ask a Doctor". I will try to answer your question to the best of my ability.
I would check in with your primary care physician. They should be able to treat simple problems like a groin strain. The low-grade fever may be completely unrelated and probably needs the primary care physician to check for causes of infection.
Take some simple over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol. This will help with the pain in the groin and also reduce the fever.
I hope this information is useful for you. Please do not hesitate to message us back if you have any further questions.
Best wishes,
Adrian Rawlinson MD
