What are the symptoms and signs of groin pull?
Groin pull (adductor muscle strain) is usually characterized by a sudden onset of pain in the muscles of the inner thigh (adductor longus), at the junction of the muscle and tendon, or at the site of the insertion of the tendon to the pelvis (inferior pubic ramus). During examination, the physician will look for tenderness to pressure over the adductor muscles, as well as pain with bending (flexion) of the hip or squeezing together of the legs (hip adduction).
