Has anyone experienced pain in groin area?

I had occult groin pain after resuming jogging at age 70.
Went to my ortho and hips were in good shape.
Golf was an aggravating factor. Consulted a general
surgeon and he diagnosed bilateral inguinal hernias.
Successful laparoscopic repair had me free of symptoms
for a month until I resumed my normal activities!
Got fairly painful with golf until I felt a snap on teeing off and went down on my knees. Long story shortened-
torn adductor tendon relieved the pain and made the diagnosis. Psoriatic arthritis was the real culprit and the
cause in retrospect. Doing well on Humira and the golf course with a caring rheumatologist.

@bebold funny how doctors think they can go by old imaging I had my surgeon that done my fusion and 2 other surgeons look at my I believe was 8 month old MRI and said they wouldn’t do nothing (first surgeon meant it wouldn’t even get me out of a wheelchair to check me ) then about a year later I was referred to Mayo Clinic and they done a CT and found a loose screw (in my back not my head) but still insist leave it alone and put in a spine stimulator

Check for hip issues mine started 2017 then had a complete hysterectomy.... continued... GP said WALK... would not give me a disability parking pass.. total left hip replacement 2023 .. do x-rays

Was diagnosed with tendonopathy in my hip with bursitis and need surgery as nothing else works. Went to Mayo who said that's a sports doctor problem and they probably won't see or treat you because you are too old. Go get physical therapy (which you never do when you have pain like this) In the meantime I am in excruciating pain and have already contacted Switzerland to see about end of life options and I cannot live with pain like this anymore. Thanks Mayo

@ljkljk

Try a 2nd opinion at another top hospital. What is too old???
People are having hip surgeries in their 80’s
If a sports med doctor is the one who would possibly do this, see one.

You are not one opinion and done.

Advocate….

Apparently tendon issues are very different from hip replacement. Tons of doctors do hip replacements but only a select few do tendon repair. I spoke with 3 doctors before I went to Mayo. I saw a PA there and she works for a doctor that does replacements. However she said she consulted with the one who does tendon repairs and they don't do it on people of my age. Just told me they recommended I keep getting pain injections and PRP. BTW PRP costs a minimum of $850.00 per injection. One other sports doctor also does not do this type of surgery past 65 years old. However I did have an Honor doctor recommend doing surgery on me for this and I'm going back to him. Unfortunately I have some health issues which my pulmonologist at Mayo said I cannot have any surgery at all in my condition. But I am willing to do a spinal and not general anesthetic so hopefully the Honor doctor will be willing to do it. I am desperate and willing to try anything even it means taking a huge risk for a heart attach. I'd rather that than become a drug addict from the pain. Thus my communication with Switzerland. Apparently a much more humane country

Yes. I have a complex of the superior labrum from 10'oclock to 12 o'clock with detachment and horizontal components. Severe anterior and lateral hip joint capsular thickening and edema. Bilateral adductor longs tendinitis. I do get pain in the groin and inner thigh after I begin to walk. This is very frustrating. Doing PT but nothing is helping. Received one cortisone injection on the outer hip to release some inflammation, although this if repeated can weaken the tendons. Next we may try PRP injection.

@anacioffi I feel your pain. I am in pain all the time. Someone said that peptide BPC157 helps regenerate and hill muscles/tendons. My doctor does not recommend this yet although he said it will be the way of the future. You should discuss with you doctor and see what he says. I was also told that labral surgery of the hip is not so successful on 70 year olds. It is however, for younger athletes. I wish well and keep me posted.
