What’s Causing My Groin Pain?
The majority of the time, groin pain is caused by a muscle strain. However, there are other reasons you could be experiencing groin pain, such as a kidney stone, hip arthritis, hip fracture, or sports hernia. Our physical therapists can determine the root of your pain and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
A groin strain is often an athletic injury or the result of overuse (repetitive movement) of the hip joint. This type of injury typically causes sharp, sudden pain.
Other symptoms include:
- Pain and tenderness
- Swelling or bruising
- Muscle weakness
- Limited range of motion
- An audible pop or snapping sound
- Difficulty walking
- Tightness
How Can Pelvic Physical Therapy Improve My Groin Pain?
Our Vitality Women’s Physical Therapy physical therapists aim to reduce your groin pain, improve motion, build strength, and promote a safe return to activities. In addition, we can educate you on how to prevent future injuries from occurring so you can stay pain-free!
Treatments that we use for groin pain include:
Therapeutic massage
Massage is a type of manual therapy. Your therapist will use their hands to gently apply pressure to the area in order to ease pain and tension.
Modalities
To treat groin pain, we may use:
Heat: Heat can provide pain relief to sore muscles after the initial swelling and inflammation have subsided.
Electrical stimulation: Electric current is believed to stimulate nerve cells that block the transmission of pain signals, which adjusts your perception of pain.
Exercises
Your physical therapist may prescribe exercises to strengthen your muscles and improve your range of motion.
