My left groin is sore and steadily getting worse and I can't figure out what's causing it. It's been a pretty mild irritation for a couple of months or more, and today it's sore enough that I notice it when I walk. I haven't done anything to irritate it for a couple of weeks but it's definitely getting worse. When I was working on side to side squats it would be sore for the first set then it would be fine.
I've stopped running for the past couple of weeks and have not done the middle split during that time either. I just tried a twisting squat and got a very sharp pain. I don't know my anatomy very well but I think it's the "adductor longus" based on an anatomy image from the web.
Any thoughts on what might be causing it to get worse or how to fix it?
