Groin pain can be caused by several conditions. It’s most often caused by adductor strains, also called groin strains, which are injuries to any of the adductor muscles of the thigh or their corresponding tendons.
Hip and pelvis conditions
As soon as a hip joint starts to cause pain, our natural reaction is to avoid using it. This can put extra strain on other parts of your body, such as the lower back or knee, causing new problems. We've given many patients a new lease of life with surgery.
