Groin Pain.

[Aoibheann]

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. 🍀

Thank you. X

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 😊

[Aoibheann in reply to Mum27]

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.

Ahh sorry, I didnt realise you were not in England xx

[Aoibheann in reply to Dizzytwo]

No worries. Take care ❤

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

[Aoibheann in reply to Dinkie]

Dinkie, thank you for taking the time to reply. Please see my reply to Mum27. 😊

I have groin pain frequently, mine is from arthritis hips and lower spine crushed discs

[angelm54]

Arthritis in my hips started with groin pain when walking, see your doctor as soon as you can

I’ve had this turned out it was an hernia in my groin

[Aoibheann in reply to Idaho]

What treatment did you have? X

[JMGWORTH]

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

[Aoibheann in reply to JMGWORTH]

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

[JMGWORTH]

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

[Aoibheann in reply to JMGWORTH]

Have you seen a doctor at all?

[Aoibheann in reply to JMGWORTH]

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

[Aoibheann in reply to Iamthemedicalmystery]

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 ❤
