Cath procedure 4 months ago to check heart. experiencing groin discomfort. ultra sound found nothing unordinary. feels like a pulled muscle or nerv?

Most likely : it is unlikely a complication from the cath procedure 4 months out. ULtrasound would have detected a hematoma or pseudo aneurysm. It most likely is a pulled muscle. See your PCPS if pain continues.

Possibly: I'm assuming the groin pain is on the same side as the catheter site & that your doctor was concerned about a blood clot. I need to know how soon after the procedure you started feeling groin discomfort, what physical activities you engaged in recently and the quality of the pain (dull, sharp, radiating?) Please resubmit your question with these details so we may better help you. Thanks.
