happygirl Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Hi all, I have a possible groin injury (sharp pain on right inner thigh when I try to do the splits and also when I try to kick at an angle) Any advice? I think it's a groing strain, I don't know. Anyone else ever get this? I've been doing TKD for 12 years, this is very frustrating ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Dragon Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 how long has it been around? it could just be a possible strain on a muscle,but it could also be a serious problem and you may have injured something.

gcav Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 If it hurts don't do it and consult your doctor. Train like your life depends on it....Because it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback_04 Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Just give it time...I've got the same problem right now, and everytime it starts to feel better, I go out and try and do some strenuous activity and BAM, it goes right back to square one...they're a real pain in the *.

happygirl Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 Thanks for the replies. Yes, it is a pain. It's a bit better now and I keep stretching so hopefully it'll go away soon ... I only realized from surfing the net a few days ago that's it's a groin strain. Funny thing is, when one doesn't stretch at all, these things don't seem to get better!

steveb Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 FYI...the belt listed by your user name is based on the number of posts you contribute, not your actual belt level in the real world. Res firma, mitescere nescit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelaG Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hiya. I've been having real trouble with my lower back, spreading round deep into my thigh. Strangely enough it no longer hurts when I do the splits (for the first time ever I got down into full splits last night!!) but it does hurt when I kick high or just when I am walking sometimes. Unfortunately I don't (won't!) take enough time off to let it fully heal so I guess I am aggravating an injury and therefore can't really complain. Last week I stopped training on Tuesday and didn't go back until Sunday which is a long time for me. Occasionally the pain in my back/groin really twinges and then my leg will often release, so I am also wondering whether there is some nerve problem there! . Sigh... if I ignore the problem hopefully it will go away!
