Hello,

Thank you for contacting me at "Ask a Doctor". I will try to answer your question to the best of my ability.

This could be a simple groin strain or possibly a mild tendinitis in the area.I would continue to treat this conservatively for the moment. Simple stretching and applications of ice will help. Take ibuprofen if you need. pain relief. If the symptoms are worsening over the next few days then I would see your primary care physician for a checkup.


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
