What Causes Pain In Groin And Tightness In Hips Flexor Muscle?

Hello....I have had burning sometimes searing pain in both groin. Now it s more on the right side and my hips flexor muscle become very tight and becomes hard to walk. all blood work thru the years are negative for any prostate problems. Seems to get worse when sitting or sleeping, movement seems to help, I have been diagnosed with RA two years ago even after 10 blood panels came back negative for RA, but they are treating me as if I have RA with the methotrexate weekly. I have read that it might be my siattic nerve because sometime I get real tender from my groin to my big toe.....any thoughts please
