I pulled a groin muscle years ago walking at a fast pace. It has not stopped me from staying active but it is difficult to lift my leg to simply put on socks just with my left leg, feeling pain in groin.. It has been like this for probably 5 years. Now for the past year I ve been experiencing knee pain on the left side of my knee , same leg. When i lift my leg I feel pain down from groin to outside of knee - it feels related. I find if difficult to bend to touch my left foot because of pain in groin.
Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of you. After a thorough clinical assessment you should see a physical therapist as the therapist will help learn the exercises. Also, with physical therapy the joint stability is maintained, strength is achieved, ROM is obtained etc. Most patients with hip and knee injuries respond well to physical therapy and exercises. As due to the hip joint issue the knee has been getting trouble. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
