Hello
Thanks for query .Severe pain in groin making your day to day activities difficult needs to be investigated .It could be due to Left Inguinal Hernia .

Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis.

Further treatment will depend upon clinical findings and result of these tests and final diagnosis.
