What Can Cause Sharp Pain In Groin Area?
Hi, i felt a sharp pain in my L/H groin (i think groin) whilt doing lunges at the gym. I was exercising my R/H leg and balancing with the left. It felt like three pops. I am battling to walk but can climb stairs quite easy. what do you think it is?

hi
thank-you for providing the brief history of you.
A thorough clinical examination is advised.
As you were doing lunges I suspect it to be a ligament sprain in the hip joint. It will take 2-3 days for the inflammation to subside. Using icing will help reduce the pain and inflammation.
In my clinical practice such cases respond well to icing.
