What Causes Pain In Groin Area At Night?
My husband has been staying up at night with bad pains in the groin area. His hips have also been giving him problems. Scared for him. Could this be serious or just working all day on heavy equipment making him sore in his scrotum. This has been going on for about a year off and on.

I can understand your concern.If I were your treating doctor,I would like to ask few questions to rule out the cause of pain
* Is there any swelling in the groin or in the scrotum
* Are there any signs of redness or tenderness
* Have you had fever recently
* Have you been hit in the region where it pains
If there are no signs of infection and if the pain is aggravated after strenuous activity or work ,it will subside by taking Altraday twice daily.If your husband is having any of the above mentioned symptoms of infection,it's better to get examined by your physician to rule out the cause
