Hello,
Usually, MRI is the report which suggests the possible tissue pathologies and we need to correlate that with the clinical symptoms to confirm that it is MS or not. Even a lumbar puncture may be advised to rule the possible CSF infection.
As there is a pain in the groin area and numbness in the toe I think this should be related to the degenerative changes in the spinal column leading to Radicular symptoms
With proper diagnosis and then medicine for the cause can help symptomatic relief. If it's a spinal column issue or even the MS, general exercise to focus on strengthening the muscles of the spinal column along with the upper limb and lower limb will help reduce your symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
