Can Physical Therapy Help My Pulled Groin?
The groin is comprised of a group of muscles that run down the inside of the thigh. Groins are frequently injured during sports that involve changes in direction (such as hockey or soccer) or during a slip and fall (like on our icy side walks).
Pulled groins often feel like you have a sharp jabbing pain up into the high inner thigh. More serious groin pulls will be accompanied by bruising and swelling.
At MOMENTUM Physical Therapy & Sports Rehab, we evaluate groin injuries by determining which muscle is injured and the severity of the injury. We then develop a treatment plan using hands on therapy, stretching, and muscle strengthening to fully rehab and recover your pulled muscle. If you do not properly rehab a groin pull, these injuries can cause longstanding issues and are prone to re injury.
If you are having any groin or leg pain, call MOMENTUM Physical Therapy & Sports Rehab in Okotoks today to find out how we can get you moving again!
