See below: Possibilities include strain of groin muscles, problem with the hip itself or sometimes a problem with the sacroiliac joint . Less common cause in a 24 year old would be a hernia. Would recommend you see a sports medicine doctor who can figure it out for you.

Groin pull: Sounds like a groin pull. These can take months to heal . Depending on the severity. See your sports medicine md or physical therapist for evaluation and options.
