Groin nerve pain in Terrassa
Reviewed by Oriol Martínez Picas, registered physiotherapist (Col. 10224) · Updated
Assessment and treatment of neuropathic pain in the groin, often mistaken for pubalgia or muscle problems.
What it involves
Specialised physiotherapy in Terrassa: each plan is tailored to your injury and your situation. First we assess, then we choose the technique.
- Differential diagnosis with other causes of groin pain
- Percutaneous neuromodulation of the affected nerve branches
- Manual therapy and myofascial work in the area
- Progressive rehabilitation plan
Common symptoms
- Burning, electric or tingling pain in the groin, the inner thigh or the genital area.
- It gets worse with certain movements, long periods of sitting or sport.
- It can appear after surgery in the area, an overload or with no clear cause.
How we assess it
I take your history and carry out a nerve and muscle examination of the lower back, pelvis, hip and abdomen. With ultrasound I can see the nerves and the tissues around them, to locate where they may be irritated or trapped.
How we treat it
Manual therapy and nerve mobility work, ultrasound-guided percutaneous neuromodulation when indicated, and progressive exercise. The plan is tailored to each patient, and sometimes I work together with your doctor.
When to see a doctor
If there is fever, a lump in the groin, loss of strength, changes in urination or bowel movements, or sudden and very severe pain, see a doctor before starting any treatment.
