There are many possibilities. Inguinal hernia comes to mind. It can cause serous problems if gets worse. It would be obvious because of huge pain spreading out of the area. And the muscles and tendons can be just ripped (groin pull). The groin pull takes months to get better, the inguinal hernia only gets worse over time.
