Suggest Remedy For Popping Pain & Swelling In Groin

Today, I was playing soccer, and I wanted to shoot a free kick, but when I swinged with my leg to kick it, I felt some kind of a pop in my groin area, at that moment I barely walked, and I m still having trouble walking and moving my leg while resting. There is no swelling, everything looks okay, but still hurts.

hi,

thanks for giving the mechanism of the injury as you mentioned that you had some popping way of the hip.

this happens usually in soccer player if the muscles are not strong enough to hold the thrust applied to kick the ball.

since you said there is no sign of swelling I agree that there is no major issue with you.

you need to first use the hot water fermentation as to get soothing effect in that area. also you need to workout beind the hip muscles and also the internal and external rotators of the hip joint is important if you are going to keep playing the soccer.

internal and external rotator muscle of the hip joint are responsible for holding the joint in position while applying the kick to the ball.

with the exercises I am sure you will be fine and back to action in soccer with wide horizons.

I wish you a good health and a best future in soccer.
