What Causes Recurring Pain In Groin Area And Pressure?
Hello,
Im having on and off sharp pains in my groin area and pressure. I have suffered, on and off, for the last 8 yrs with kidney stones and I thought this may be another one. However, I'm not having the back pain that usually goes along with it. Could this be another kidney stone or maybe a UTI? I've been having this sensation for the past 3 weeks, and Ive tried everything I know to try to pass the stone if it indeed is one, but nothing has came out or worked....
