Is stretching a pulled groin bad?

Do i have more than a pulled groin?

• okay so at football yesterday after stretching we were doing some drills and i felt a pop in my groin and i heard it too. I instantly had a sharp pain from my groin, down to my mid inner, and also my left testicle felt numb and was in pain. I went to urgent care and he said i might have a pulled groin or a hernia. Today i woke up and i still having a lot of pain in my testicle and my groin and noticed pain when i poked a spot in my stomache. Thanks for your help

• Answer:

  It is impossible for anyone here to know for sure. As they told you in urgent care, it could be either a groin pull or a hernia. Read about groin pulls here and it may help you figure it out. http://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/groin-pull A femoral hernia appears as a bulge in the upper thigh, just below the groin. This type of hernia is more common in women than men. Read about hernias here and see what you think. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001956/ So after you read the information and maybe do a little more research, think about your own symptoms and how you feel, and follow the directions for self care. If it does not seem to be improving, or is getting worse, see your doctor.
