	eMedicine - Groin Injury : Article by Timothy J Rupp
		Groin injuries are commonly encountered by physicians and clinicians who treat athletes of all ages at all levels of competition.
		Groin injuries are particularly common in activities in which forceful adduction of the hip occurs; examples include skating, ice hockey, swimming, and soccer.
		The groin, therefore, includes the following: the lower rectus abdominis musculature, the inguinal region, the symphysis pubis, the upper portions of the adductor muscles of the thigh, and the genitalia and the scrotum.

	Yoga Journal : Practice : Ask Our Expert
		Medically, the groin is the junction between the abdomen and thigh.
		Technically, the groin runs along the entire length of the crease, and it's still the groin after the thigh descends and the crease goes away.
		Other teachers call this area the "inner groin" and its counterpart near the outer end of the hip crease the "outer groin." In this case, they sometime use the plural "groins" to refer to the inner and outer parts of the groin of the same leg, as in, "lift the inner and outer groins equally."

	Groin Pain and Groin Pull Injury \| Brad Walker
		The groin, described as the junction between the lower limbs and torso, is vulnerable to a lot of different injuries.
		Hernias, stress fractures, and avulsion fractures are all common injuries that affect the groin, but for this issue we'll be focusing on one of the most common groin injuries; groin pull or groin strain.
		When the groin and hip were tested for injury, the hip joint, illiopsoas, and rectus femoris muscles were ruled out as having been injured; however, when the athlete adducted the hip from a stretch position, it caused here extreme discomfort.

	Groin - Uncyclopedia
		A groin is a place where undergrowths such as lemons and carrots are grown.
		When a groin starts out fresh and young and the seeds are planted, it is usually a barren piece of land.
		Firstly, the groin needs to be mowed using a lawn mower and the bushes need to be watered every day to keep up the lush greenness of the place.

		The diagnosis of groin pain in athletes is difficult because the anatomy of the region is complex and because two or more injuries often coexist.
		The ability to visualize the anatomy of the groin area is important for both the physical examination and the differential diagnosis.
		The anatomy of the groin region is illustrated in Figure 1.

		Still, the more typical "groin pull" (the proper term is "strain") is a pretty common injury in soccer, and we see teams stretching these muscles as a part of their pre-game routine.
		Groin injuries are pretty common in ice hockey because the diagonal stride used in skating puts the groin (adductor) muscles under strain.
		Then they followed groin injuries over two seasons and went back to their data to see if there were any differences between the injured and uninjured players.

		A groin pull occurs when the thigh bone or leg is pulled out causing the leg muscle to overstretch.
		You occasionally hear about sprinters with groin pulls, but the typical person we see is not the straight-ahead athlete as much as the side-to-side player in sports such as soccer, hockey and basketball.

	Groin attack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A groin attack is an attempt to cause pain to the groin area of one's opponent, either through punching, kicking, grappling, squeezing or biting.
		Groin attack is considered to be a "low blow" not only in the literal sense (indeed, this being the origin of that term), but also metaphorically.
		Thus women are taught that the groin attack is one of the key maneuvers in fending off a would-be rapist, as the technique is often very effective.

	Primary groin irradiation versus primary groin surgery for early vulvar cancer
		However, studies on the efficacy of primary radiotherapy to the groin in terms of groin recurrences and survival show conflicting results.
		From these studies (RCT, one case-control and one observational study) it became clear from the RCT that the incidence of groin recurrences after primary radiotherapy is higher compared with surgery.
		The conclusion of the RCT was criticized on the grounds of the depth of the radiotherapy administered.

	Cool Running :: Pulled groin muscles?
		You may be walking differently with a groin pull, putting more pressure on one leg over another or exerting a group of muscles you wouldn't normally exert as much without a groin pull.
		On a side note, before running, I always stretch the groin by sitting upright with the flats of my feet touching each other and pulled toward my groin as far as possible with the outter sides of my knees as far to the ground as possible.
		One doctor thought it was sciatic nerve bothering all of it, another thought it was a strained groin muslce causing all the problems, and the urologist also thought it is a strained groin muslce.

	Hip and Groin Pain/Discomfort: Its Diagnosis and Treatment
		I have found that the diagnosis and treatment of hip and groin discomfort requires spinal and extra-spinal inspection and treatment.
		It is my observation that most hip and groin discomfort observed is initiated by dysfunction of the lower lumbar spine and consequent sacroiliac dysfunction.
		The groin may hurt, but it is not necessarily inflamed.

	Grabbing or hitting a guy in the groin? - The BUST Lounge
		Sure, the female groin is a hard target (at least harder than the male groin), but the shin is also a hard target with a plethora of nerve endings, and a hit there hurts like hell, even from a small child.
		Thus, I suppose that if a woman were hit in the groin with any significant force, she would double over and begin nursing the area, just as she would if she were hit in the shin.
		Thus, if a man attacks a woman and she hits him in the groin, the man is likely to finish his attack on the woman, THEN double over in pain after the woman is sufficiently beaten.
