Hip injury

I'm struggling with a really sore hip / groin (!) today. Feels really like a trapped nerve as much as anything else but I've never had anything like this before. Is a sharp pain on the inside of my hip / pelvis and shoots down my leg, causing numbness.
Was brought on by runing last night (actually started a week ago but much worse last night / today). Before today cycling has been fine, but now seem to be lacking strength in my leg.
Obvioucly time for a physio visit but anyone has anything simillar? The worse thing is my new bike is due to be delivered within the hour and at the moment I don't feel much like riding it....

Sounds like a nerve thing - dont know if sudden numness shouldnt be seen as an emergency... get to physio/professional ASAP would be my advice!0

I'm just getting over Psoas Tendinitis, where the pain runs inside the "V" of the groin, which worsens when bending or standing upright.
Feels like a groin strain but it isn't. Goes into your lower belly, and limits sideways movements etc.
Treatment was physio, stretching, and a cortisone/Steroid injection. Not nice!
Hope yours is diagnosed soon...0 -
Two years ago I was laid low by sciatica/ sacro illiac joint inflammation & I can fully sympathise with you, physio & LOTS of heavy duty painkillers eventually did the trick. Be prepared for a possible 3 months & "throwing" the affected leg as if you've had a mild stroke, I do not jest! I read up on it & if it makes you doubly incontinent (not funny) this is classed as a medical emergency & you need help A.S.A.P. the best of luck matey this aint no laughing matter. 0 -
Thanks for the comments all. Hope everyone is recovered now.
It has eased off considerably this morning (throughout the day yesterday actually) so not a medical emergency for the time being (thank goodness!) The underlying problem is still there however so will take it easy on the running. Fortunately cycling doesn't seem to aggravate it - so did manage a quick spin on the new bike (for about a mile!)
