Please listen…. there is so much pain in my mother leg.. swelling in knees and leg. Can she do this exercise?
I was feeling sore in my groin from soccer and after icing it I tried those exercise and I feel so much relief
I have a 2ft piece of pipe i use. I also put it on the floor and roll my arches, full body weight
I have inner thigh pain and rested for 3 weeks. I was only doing ab exercises and started feeling inner thigh pain. I started very mild exercises after 3 weeks because the pain had almost gone. But now it has started again. What should I do?
Even haters will hate something that’s great. Who are those 83 miserable people. I Loved it. Thanks for the tips. Been doing P90X and my heisman move and lifting my leg has cause the groin stretch. I took notes and action… and am ready to heal.
I recently had the groin pull and I started the stretches today. But now I can feel some pain while walking and getting up from the bed which I didn’t have earlier. So is this pain good or should I reduce the intensity of the exercises?
By far one of the most effective YouTube video I have ever come across. I literally got my pain relieved in 5 mins. Thank you DoctorJo!
what if you can’t even do the first stretch because its TOO sore and tight:O
I wear a groin support. How long should I wear it throughout the day? I do about 10,000 steps a day. Do I use this groin support when I go walking?
I do a band side walk/shuffle like you find in a gym class as a workout for golf. I now have a recurring groin strain three weeks ago I was in serious pain in the groin area. Is the band workout causing the groin strain?
Hi i have a muscle strain in my left groin 5 weeks already i started pt yesterday i have to admit the stretches make it feel better
Hi Dr Jo! I’m a subscriber who’s super happy to have found your channel, because every video I’ve tried by you WORKS! I’m currently doing the pinched nerve in the neck series, and the ulnar nerve series, and those have really sped up my healing and given me so much relief! I’m so thankful for you and for your channel <3
My question today is, I feel some pain that comes from some area in my hip, especially where the leg joins the crotch area, and then it extends into the middle of my belly on the left side and goes up to my waist (the true waist, I mean, where high-waisted jeans hit). I suspect it might be a strain, an inflamed nerve or something similar, because I’ve had a very similar pain on my right side, did a CT scan and other tests and nothing was found. This pain flares up especially if I’ve been sitting too long (about 1 hour). I feel relief if I sit with my left leg in the “butterfly” position you showed in this video, but then my back has to be super hunched, which I’m not happy about. Also, I have some knee stuff, especially the left knee, so if I just bend my leg like in the butterfly position for too long, it also hurts.
What’s especially annoying about this pain is that, unless my legs are really spread open when I sit, it flares up and bothers me. I meditate while sitting, so that pain makes it hard to sit in the same position for a long time, which is what I want when I practice meditation.
So, finally, my question is: I know you cannot diagnose me or even guess what I have, but could I ask if you think these exercises in this video might offer me some relief, or is there another series on your channel that you would recommend for me? The pain is an annoying dull discomfort in the hip area, but it gets more pronounced when it comes up in the belly area.
Thanks for the reminder to get my rolling stick back out, especially for my calves. Have you tried something like the Tim Tam yet? I just got one about a week ago and I’m really liking it, a DPT perspective would be awesome!
Always love the beginning of the video �� �� Great tips! I will show this to my mom, she has leg pains.
It again started to pain on my groin i have done a lot of strecthes and exercise but it doesn’t work please help me
Thank you so much.. I got hurt playing tennis now this is my daily routine
May Allah bless you.
Regards from Mozambique
I don’t know why I have strained muscles in this area, and neither does my doctor, but my intuition tells me it’s caused by my plantar fasciitis. I bought different insoles today and was told to “google stretches”. Lol. I knew YouTube was the best place and thankfully this is the first video I clicked on. These stretches/exercises are really helping.
Okay so I suffered a pretty bad strain a while ago, and I’ve been icing and compressing it for a few days, can I start with these exercises now? Could somebody answer this for me please??
This is SO helpful! I just pulled my groin a couple weeks ago! These exercises and stretches really helped

I can’t see my physiotherapist right now and I strained my groin shooting the soccer ball in my backyard so thank you so much!!
10 years ago I really hurt my groin doing a sit-up without breathing correctly. I was in incredible pain for at least a week. Just getting up from laying on the couch to go to the bathroom was awful groin pain. Fast forward 10 years and I pulled it again 2 weeks ago. But, only 10-20% of what it felt like back then.
I’ve rested for 2 weeks and today I’m starting stretching and doing the side hip adductor lifts 10rep 2sets a few times a day.
Thanks a lot for this!! Groin injuries are not fun.
Can’t see my PT because of the current crisis so I appreciate having this reference to get me through!
I had right side inguinal hernia surgery 10 years ago. And now, there is chronic discomfort in my right groin. These exercises suggested?

I just recently started workout out again and I pulled my muscle on my inner thigh and I didn’t notice until 2 days later I just thought I was sore but it pops everytime I try to get back up so it’s feeling more uncomfortable the more I start walking more what do I do
When I do the 2nd exercise, I straighten my leg as much as I can (without hurting myself obviously.) but then my leg starts involuntarily vibrating. Is that normal?
you are an angel, God bless you, your video really helped me with my grade 2 adductor (groin) strain….
Ive had groin issuesnfor 6 months now, thinking of visiting a surgeon, tried everthing
Hi Doctor Jo. I’m doing the exercise where I roll my leg out and then lift it back up however sometimes during this exercise it feels sore and tender. After the exercise it can feel tender too. Is that normal? Should I stop doing the exercise or keep going with the exercise daily?
is walking on treadmill bad for knee pain? how about static bike, is it good?
I really appreciate the way you get right to the point and don’t waste your viewer’s time with fluff. Great video.
Thank you so much Dr. Jo. This has helped me very much and quick enough with my groin strain. I was worried with my coming half marathon participation due to this pain. But now that the pain has gone, I’m all set for the Run. Thank you ��
I’ve had severe groin pain for over a year now, I’ve tried some exercises but I haven’t been consistent through it.
I’ll take this more seriously now, thanks Doc Jo
Dr. Jo, I had pulled my left groin muscle in march 2018. I went to the hospital and it took some time to recover and then I was fine. And I can still do exercises with ease. But the problem comes only when I am in a straddle stretch and middle split. It feels so uncomfortable in the left inner thigh, as if I am putting too much strain on it. It feels tight when I am stretching my left side (special focus on stretching the inner thigh muscles). But I don’t feel the pain afterwards. So, I don’t know what to do. Should I stretch or not? It feels as if my left groin muscle is stopping me to move any further in my stretches.
But when I do other stretches, like downward dog, etc, where I am only focusing on the hamstring, it doesn’t feel weird at all and I can stretch with quite ease.
Can you please help me?
Thank you.xxâĨ
yeah I think I may have a injury in the groin or hip..I play basketball. and after a game of going hard or jumping..my leg and groin on the right inner upper thigh area hurts like something is out of place and I start to limp.

Hi Dr. Jo. I’m having a groin muscle tear and was told to rest for a month by my doc. Having anti inflammatory tabs since 2 weeks. Can I perform these exercises now or after I’m healed?
I recently started easing myself back into the splits, I almost got there but one day I went down and I kind of slipped and went into full split and heard popping, was a little painful but not to the point I couldn’t walk or carry on at cheer practice. My question is maybe what happen, I stopped stretching out of fear and my flexibility has gotten worse since
Omg thankyou so much I taught I’d have to wait a week for it to heal.
I was squatting and went to far down and my physical education teacher said that I was because I went to far down, do you think these will help she it the pain where I pointed to was in my groin.
i’m just here because i went to tumbling for the first time in three months but then i burned my feet from being barefoot on the blacktop too long so my legs were sore and my feet are burnt so now i’m trying to get at least a little bit of pain to go away lmao thank you for listening to my rant��
Dealing with a small fortnite addiction this helped so much thank you
I believe I have strained my groin 4 months ago and have possibly re-strained it multiple times since then. The initial injury involved a flanking maneuver where my left leg went one direction while my body went the other, and there was a “pop/pull” feeling in the groin area. I initially went to a PT and he suggested it was piriformis as I was getting sciatica pain as well. The PT was going well and my pain was going down about 1 month into the therapy until we did resisted sidestepping movements. 5 minutes of that brought the pain back in full force and it was back to square one. I went to an ortho, and at first he seemed convinced it was coming from my lower back (??) and ordered an expensive lumbar MRI which came back negative. Now he seems convinced that I may have a torn labrum or FAI and is ordering an even more expensive MRA, but I am hesitant as I heard they have high false positives, and may not even be the true source of the pain. I do not have popping/clipping in the hip, just a constant feeling of uncomfortable tightness and occasional pain in the groin that spreads throughout the thigh and hip. I do feel pain in the groin area at the end of ROM during FADIR and FABER tests. Walking in general feels fine, but sitting for long periods of time can cause the pain to flare up. When I do these stretches I can feel the painful area being stretched and it feels like it’s helping so I will continue doing them. Do you have any thoughts on this situation? Thanks!
Hi! I had the groin strain due to lifting heavy objects. It’s been 2 years since that happened. My groin strain diminshes but when I start physical activities like cardio, dancing n stuff that that, it reappears causing slight discomfort. Will the stretching help? Kindly reply.

Hey Doctor Jo so my leg is in Pain My upper leg near my stomach Area Its Hurting. Really Bad And When i was I’m Limping really badly What do i do
Bob just loves the words crap and crapload. But he makes up for it by his knowledge and enthusiasm. Brad, you just have to excuse him and take him for his many positive qualities. After working with him all this time I am sure you know them well. “Me no like “spikey” but the other rollers are fine.:) The roller on the IT band really is a bit painful…:p But used with caution it doesn’t have to be a screaming event. Another G rated (except for showing Brad’s bare calf) informative video. Thanks, guys.
Hi Dr. Jo. I just stumbled across this and I can’t wait to try them out. Would these exercises apply to me? I play soccer a couple times a week and after my games I have a bit of pain (not too intense) in my groin just below the hip. It seems the pain point of sort of higher than the inner thigh which you are showing, but the day after a game when doing the exercise you showed where you lie down and lift you leg, I feel pain there, so I’m guessing it must be the groin.Anyway, I’ve had this issue since June and it’s not getting worse, but it’s not getting better either. How often would you recommend me doing these stretches and exercises based on the above? And can I continue to play as long as it isn’t getting worse?Thanks! Adam
Should I do any of these exercises if I have pain? I read that doing an activity that causes pain while trying to heal the strain, can keep it from healing.
Quick question: is it okay to do these exercises right away? When stretching on my own yesterday before finding this video, it felt good, but the groin soreness increased later. Is there a guideline about how long to rest after a mild strain (I believe grade 1-2) before beginning these? Thank you for your time & excellent videos, they’ve helped me so much in the past!

Dr Joe,
I had started running two months ago and a month ago I began to experience a pain in my groin. Especially where my hip joins the right side of my pelvic floor and on the lower part of my buttock. (Apart from running I used to throw shot put and throw ball with a right leg swing which I guess worsened my pain.)
Once the pain got worse and my gait changed (I began to walk with a tilt to the affected side) I stopped my activities. Now I restarted it some five days ago and the pain and discomfort is back…It worsened when I did a long jump land (It increases when I sprint /sit for long hours ).
# I don’t have pain when I squat or do mild stretches.
#
I’m really worried about this so please guide me on this issue. I will be very thankful….please do reply because I have a race soon.
Waiting for your reply.. ��

I was playing skate board and I was about to fall but I jumped off the skate and pushed my foot so hard on the ground and now my leg is in so much pain but I can walk, please help me
I’m 74, female. Partial replacement on right knee is in my near future. I walk every day. More like a leisurely stroll. I developed groin pain on right side a couple months ago. No strain that I can remember. I’ve been doing your groin exercises every morning for about a month. It has helped a bit, but by 1 mile, I’m in severe pain down my leg. Is it better to stop everything, and let it heal, or continue doing stretches & walking, pushing for 2 miles? Is it better to do stretches before or after I walk?
First time doing it and The pain is already going away. Thanks you so much
I have medialside shin pain while running.give solution mam
I’m a soccer player and whenever I run, play soccer or lift weights my groin feels completely fine, but whenever I’ve been still for a while and start moving my groin I get a sharp pain that sometimes goes down into my quads as well, any advice?
Will these help if the injury has been there a for while? I did my groin about 3 Years ago, the physio recommended I take a couple months off and strengthen but didn’t want to stay out too long so I went back to activity 2 weeks later and it’s been bad ever since. If I play a soccer game, the next few days I’ll be in pain. Been doing this ever since and it’s holding me back. And in all honesty I have not done much to strengthen it.
Hi Doc! I feel pain on my left groin especially when I’m running while playing basketball but doesn’t feel any while walking. Please advise.

How long does it take for a grade 1 adductor strain to heal? Three weeks in, it still is showing no signs of subsiding.
Bought and have been applying an extremely strong pain balm on (both) my uppermost inner thigh region(s). BURNS. But the pain hasn’t subsided though.
Since it’s just grade 1 probably, I hope it heals by the 4th week atleast. Had to stop most of the workouts, because of this.
My groin pain started 2 weeks ago when I decided to go for a bicycle ride with my boyfriend. Everytime I peddle I feel the sharp pain but only on my left side. I toughened it out and went for a good hour ride. That day my inner groin only hurt when I did that motion on the bike but NOW I am concerned because I am feeling discomfort and pain sporadically when I simply walk my dog. I did all the stretches in this video like advised and even the video for tailbone and lower back pain since that also is a problem area for me. I have been sleeping in a sofa bed for over 2 years now. Could that be causing all these problems in my mid section? I have a normal active life and my profession is hairdressing so I am on my feet all day but I havent had any injuries or strenuous workouts. Please help ������
So I just tore my tissue would this help me heal and go back to my stretches?

Hi, what doctor should i visit in regards to a possible pulled groin? Originally thought it was my hip flexor but now the pain seems isolated to the groin, i also feel lower back pain. I overused the muscle running and weight training. Went to two different physical therapist (they only used e stim and massaged my back which did not help) and a chiropractor (he said it was a tilted hip/pelvis) but the pain hasn’t subsided. It’s been three weeks and I’m still limping.Tried your stretches but want to make sure I’m not aggravating it, thanks in advance for your response!

Hi doc. My groin area (adductor) feels sore and strained/tight. How often to do you recommend these stretchs. Daily for a week?
Thank you. Looked at other stretch and strengthen exercises, while they look great, were waaaay too advanced for me based on my pain level. These exercises are a perfect starting and moving up point!
I’ve had groin problems for around 4 years now (I’m 14 years old) and I’ve been to see a physio and the problem won’t go away. It’s whenever I put my leg in an awkward position it makes a sharp pain in my groin and I don’t know what to do it feels like the pain will never go away
