this actually works if ur patient and do it right
Sunday was my 2nd time pulling my groin in the last month. I dove for a baseball at shortstop and I THINK I pulled my groin. The first day it hurt right around my groin but for the last 2 days its been more on the other side, around my ass. Would you consider this a pulled groin?
ive had a groin injury for a year now, and haven’t been able to play soccer in all that time. It feels like a dull pain right in the pelvis and some movements will cause a shooting pain in my inner thigh and lower abdominal area, ive had an MRI scan which didnt show anything and physiotherapy which made it stronger and a can jog now, but, it still feels weak when squeezing my legs together, like somethings going to tear it if i was to squeeze to hard. Any advice/help would be amazing!
Hello Doctor I have a question I used to work out until one day I was working on the machine for your inner thighs and suddenly i started to feel a weird sensation like if electric waves were running through my left groin the symptoms were gone for a while but i have them ocassionally now in addition to that i notice a little bomp above my belly botton and when i press on it it goes away but it comes back again could you tell me the relation between this two.
Thanks for your response
Can these exercises be done while the person is injured or are they for ongoing re-hab after healing?
Thank you
im a javelin thrower at my school, and i pulled my groin a week ago, it hurt pretty bad once i did it during a throw, and hurt to walk etc, i iced it and there was no bruising and a couple days later it didnt hurt to walk or jog etc, (normal things). and i have been going to physio and she said the unjury happened becuase my hib abductors were tight, when will i know it will be fine to try crossover steps (using groin) in a throw again.

This happened to me. But during field hockey. I play goalie so theres alot of sidetoside movements. I hurt it early september and it still comes back to haunt me anytime i play. Like during todays game
omg my deep groin area hurts soo bad. i play soccer, im about average with weight, and like, yeah i fall a LOT in soccer, I play high school(im 15) soccer so it gets pretty intense, and my friend actually had the same problem and she went to the doctor and he gave her a shot of corazone or something there but my mom whos a nurse said that was bad because at my age our plates are still moving and what not, so idk how to heal my pain because i cant get a shot even though it made her feel better.
@2WiShErS
OmG same with me aswell! mine started last week still have pain
im 12 years old, i was playing soccer last week, i was gonna take a free kick and just when i was about to kick the ball i felt as though my thigh bone was about to come out of its spot, i sat in pain for about 3 minutes and then my friends helped me out and i sat in the shade. I iced it about 10 minutes after the injury and now, a week later it still hurts when i try to run faster than a jog or if i try to lightly kick with my right leg, i was only able to walk without a limp 3 days ago…
ahhhh i pulled my groin 2 weeks ago.. aggravated it 5 days ago when doing squats… now its five days later and it hurts again after a very light butterfly groin stretch today…will this ever heal!!!????
ok i will take that in to consideration thanks alot!
@videosurfer1834 yes it would, however, for a groin pull, depending on how severe it is can take up to weeks to months to heal. Three days is not nearly enough.
