Title: pain in groin
Post by: susanep on June 09, 2010, 03:31:01 AM
I am in terrible    pain in my left groin crease area. A couple of days ago I did try a resistance band type thingy for exercise with my arms and legs. My arms were only a bit sore, but my left groin is killing me. When I move that leg at all it is very painful. Have any of you had that happen?

When I swallow, I also hurt really bad down the left side of my esophagus. I feel like I am falling apart. Last night without being sleepy, my eye lids felt like they couldn't stay open any longer.

Would appreciate any comments. Take care everyone.

I'd say go to the doctor.  I know I pulled my groin muscle once, but my throat didn't hurt when I did it.  I don't know, but I would call the doc for an appointment.

Hi Susan  :)

I think you need to get that checked out too. As you know - I'm not medical but the three things I would want to check for are groin strain, swollen glands in that area or OA of the hip which can sometimes present as groin pain. I bet there are lots of other possibilities too which is why I think you should run it past a doctor. (Maybe run is the wrong word there! ::))

Take care - Scottie  :)

Susan,

I agree you should try to see the doctor.  In the meantime, try applying heat to the area.  It may loosen the muscles and relieve the pain a bit.

May seem like a crazy suggestion BUT, when i hurt in lower L groin, side, I also consider colon, lower intestine. 

Gastro related????  Or, was it your band exercise.  We are all different.... ???

I will be trying to get in to see my doctor. It hurts in my groin when I try to  raise my leg. I am getting so much worse with my sjogren's and fibro.

Tonight I am having a lot of pain in my right jaw bone. I can barely open my mouth. I must be having a lot of arthritic stuff going on.
