Hernia?: Please see a doctor. There are a number of reasons why this might be so, one of which is a hernia. Your doc can examine you and let you know what to do next to fix it. Also, a mental health professional can teach you ways to deal with your anxiety. Peace and good health.

It could just be: Muscle or groin/ligament strain. Ur anxiety may be contributing to ur groin pain and ibs symptoms. Try to ease up and relax and find more fun in whatever u do.Continue staying active and losing weight.Don't worry, be happy! http://m.healthline.com/symptom/groin-pain. http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2011/01/23/11-tips-to-help-manage-anxiety/.
