What Causes Pain In Groin?
Hi..I am 30 years old Male and I have been having pain in the left side of my Groin. Its not very chronic but when I press in that area or stretch my thigh or lift my leg it starts paining. Also past couple of weeks I was having a back ache for which I consulted an Orthopedic and he showed me some exercise to do which relieved me a lot. But now I am getting this pain which is not very severe but would like to be cautious. Could you please help?

Hello,
Looking at your details it primarily looks to be a groin strain .I shall advice you to avoid any type of stretching of legs and heavy exercises for few days. You may have a good analgesic like advil for relief from pain. Even after all this your problem does not resolves in 5-7 days then you should consult to your doctor and have an X-ray to rule out problem.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
