What causes pain in the lower left groin area?

Answer by  dkulze (160)

It is very possible that this is a hernia. This is a tear in the muscles of the abdomen, which hold in our internal organs. Stress from a cough, lifting, twisting, or other actions can cause the muscle to tear, requiring surgery to correct.

Pain in the lower left groin can come from an over-extension or a pulled groin. They are very slow healing injuries, but the pain should subside over time. The best way to avoid there injuries is to stretch your groin muscles on a daily basis. If they are generally loose, then future pulls are less likely.
