There are periods of better and worse symptoms. Secondary muscular symptoms are […] SYMPTOMS There is gradual onset of diffuse exercise-induced pain in the groin. Occasionally the patient experiences, and may be able to demonstrate, clicking from the groin in rotational movement. The hip joint is usually stiff and more painful in the morning than in the afternoon and rotational movements are most difficult. In severe cases […] SYMPTOMS Gradual onset of diffuse or localised exercise-induced pain at the insertion of the adductor longus around the symphysis. It can be associated with a slip, strain or split on a slippery football pitch. It is common in footballers, who usually complain of an inability to strike the ball with full power. AETIOLOGY […] |
