Hi, I have awful pain in my thigh, going into the groin area. I cannot walk. Please anyone with advice. Taking painkillers and using an ice pack but no good. Help!

I can’t give medical advice, but I do suggest seeing a doctor. Especially if you are taking pain meds because the pain is so intense. 🍀

If your pain is so severe maybe you should call 111 I am sorry but no one here is qualified to give medical advice.

I have the same problem for me it's arthritis in my hip, you should see your doctor

Hi there, I think your reply was meant for the original poster not me 😊

Mum27, I never connected groin pain with arthritis. I have osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. I’ll just continue with painkillers and I have anti-inflammatories that I don’t always take but will now. Thank you for your help. X

Dizzytwo. - I don’t think we have the 111 service in the north of Ireland.

I have groin pain but it’s related to osteoarthritis in both hips. Maybe the dreaded fibro isn’t the cause this time. Worth a chat with GP

I also suffer from groin pain but my goes into my hip, nothing takes the pain away I just have to hope it goes on its own, I really feel for you, send my love and soft hugs x

That's right, no painkiller takes the pain away. Mine started about 10 days ago and here in the north of Ireland it is very difficult to get a GP appointment. I'm just hoping it goes away. How long have you suffered? Take care ❤ X

I've had it for about 3 years ,it comes for about 4 weeks at a time, goes away for about 1month then it comes back,it's hard to get comfortable because I carnt sit or lay down because the pain is constant x

Have you seen a doctor at all?

Hi, the groin pain left yesterday. I’m so relieved. Take care one and all. 🙏 👍 🙋‍♀️

I think you need to get some medical advice but I think its a sign of sciatica/ trapped nerve

Thank you, something else to think about! I'll have to try and get a GP appointment, so difficult to get here in the north of Ireland. Take care ❤
