Well now its bursitis (ortho says) my pain dr says it’s a nerve, so he did some injections & the groin pain went away immediately & the pain stayed away for 31 hrs, now he’s completed another injection but not in the same spot even though I told him during the procedure that’s not the place you hit last time, so I had excruciating groin & hip pain for 11 straight days. Now he’s completed another round of injections into the Si joint & it’s only helped my back but not the dang groin pain, next is another injection into the bursa, so now I wait for the next set. But I do have this to add: my granddaughter & I have been exercising at home (she’s 11 & very hyper) so I was showing her some floor Jazzercise mice’s I used to teach & the my hip is extremely stiff, that night the hip & groin pain was thru the roof, the next am I get up with no & I mean no hip or groin pain, so this makes me think it is the tendons & ligaments causing the pain, I’ve been exercising 2x a day when I can handle the pain!

Hello - I have had 2 thr and 3 revisions in the past 15 years and managed to stay very active until I became seriously ill in 2018, then became a couch potato for several months. While inactive my hip developed bursitis, which included groin and back pain. My ortho injected the bursa and I pushed myself to get back to stretching and exercise. It hasn't come back! So if exercise helps you might want to ask your ortho about a hip injection to get you "over the hump"
