Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Groin Area

I was riding my bike, and I fell, during the fall the end of the bars went right to the left side of my male crotch area. It hit me pretty hard and now its starting to swell up and also bleed. I feel the area around where it wasnt hit and it feels very strain like veiny feelings.

Hi,

Based on your description there could be a number of causes for the groin/leg pain on the left side. A small stone in the ureter that has passed on above from the kidney which is lodged in the ureter, can be responsible for this pain. Urinalysis, X-ray KUB/ Ultrasound abdomen pelvis should be done. If none are found then neuromuscular disorders should be worked up. A physical exam would indicate whether its a leg/groin/hip joint issue or a back/spine problem. An MRI of the lumbosacral spine can be advised, based on the physical exam. In the meanwhile, antispasmodic medication can be added to the advil or Tylenol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
