Dr. Thomas Deberardino answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Pulse = blood flow: A noticeable pulsing sensation in the area of the groin causing pain that worsens with flexion (increased compression to region) could be a sign of underlying vascular problem. Urgent evaluation by your primary care physician is warranted
