Male groin pain may be related to hernia, groin lymphadenitis, varicocele, orchitis and epididymitis, etc. The degree of pain will vary depending on the condition, and sometimes may be accompanied by a mass. No matter what causes the groin pain, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis of the cause in time, and then carry out targeted treatment to reduce the harm caused by the pain. When male groin pain occurs, the following situations should be considered:
1. It is necessary to pay attention to the possibility of inguinal hernia with incarceration, which is common in indirect hernia or femoral hernia. This condition is usually manifested as a mass in the groin area that can be returned spontaneously, suddenly unable to return to the abdominal cavity, accompanied by obvious pain, and even local redness and swelling when the course of the disease is long.
2. Groin lymphadenitis can also cause pain in the groin area, usually manifested as one or more enlarged lymph nodes in the groin area, accompanied by local skin redness, swelling, and tenderness.
3. Varicocele can cause obstruction of blood return, which may lead to pain in the groin area.
4. Inflammation of the testicles and epididymis can cause pain in this area. Lymph node inflammation in the groin area leads to local pain.
