Sports hernia: You may have what is commonly, but incorrectly called a sports hernia. The best term is groin pain or athletic pubalgia. There are many ligaments, tendons and muscles in the groin with opposing forces on the pelvis from the abdomen, leg, and back. Try rest, ice, anti-inflammatory meds for 6-8 weeks. If no help, may need MRI for diagnosis. Treatment may be physical therapy or surgery.
