Hi.
Thanks for your query.
To recapitulate: Male / 59 pain in groin on walking - numbness when stationary - sign of redness - thought initially due to underwater - legs are not restricted.

It would help me if you can provide some information:
- For how many days or weeks is the problem present?
- Any lump?
- Any history of hernia?
- Any wound on the lower limb on the same side?
