Not normally: Generally greater trochanter bursitis causes pain in this region and sometimes down the outside of the thigh.Groin pain is not characteristic of gt bursitis.If it persists get a thorough examination.

NO: Trochanteric bursitis only hurts on the outside of the hip. If you groin hurts it is usually arthritis in the hip joint itself.

I've had pain in my left hip for months now and the pain radiates to my groin. Hip hurts to press on. And when I'm walking or moving around sometimes the pain is that bad it makes my leg give out.
