What Causes Pain And Heaviness In The Groin Area While Having Spinal Stenosis?
Q I experience pain in or near my groin (both sides) when walking and made worse when carrying weight like a golf bag or two year old child. Also feel it in the outside of my upper thigh close to my hips. I have spinal stenosis. Could this be related to hip flexor? Thanks in advance, Serge

Hi,
These symptoms are quite common in spinal stenosis and it is due to compression of your nerves by narrows spinal canal. As of now, you can take analgesics like Tramadol for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist, you can consult an orthopedic doctor and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
