This looks like adductor tendinitis. It might occur due to the deranged lever arm mechanism due to loss of length of leg. Icing the area might help. Their are certain medications which reduce the swelling which occurs on the inside and reduce pain as well as a graded strengthening exercises program might help prevent recurrence of pain.
