Groin
Groin pain occurs in the area where the thigh meets the pelvis and may result from overuse, muscle strain, tendon inflammation, or sudden movement. It’s common among athletes but can also affect people with physically demanding work or exercise routines.
Causes and Symptoms
Acute groin pain often follows a specific event, such as a muscle or tendon strain, while gradually developing pain usually stems from repeated stress over time. The pain can feel sharp or aching, sometimes radiating toward the hip, pelvis, or abdomen.
Treatment
Physiotherapy plays a key role in managing groin pain. An individualized exercise program focusing on strength, flexibility, and control helps reduce pain, restore function, and prevent recurrence.
Treatment may include manual therapy, soft tissue techniques, and progressive training under physiotherapist guidance.
Prevention
To prevent groin pain, it’s important to strengthen the hip muscles, increase training load gradually, and warm up properly before activity. Regular hip and core training improves stability and reduces the risk of reinjury.
