What does a groin injury mean? There are two types of groin injuries that you can suffer. These are an overburdening injury and an acute injury. An overload in the groin is caused by incorrect rotational movements in the hip. An acute groin injury unexpectedly shoots into the groin, which can lead to a sprain or tear in the muscle.

With mild symptoms, a muscle crack will occur, so that you have to avoid overload and can use your leg to a limited extent. In case of severe complaints, you should immobilize your groin and all forms of load are not recommended. You will then be checked for recovery under the supervision of a physiotherapist and doctor.
