Can lower back pain & pain in the groin when lifting weight indicate hernia?
human
I m having pain in my groin for a year when i jump down from something, and last week i started having pain in my groin when i pick up 50lbs or more. Mainly i was picking up my daughter. Having pain in my lower back also today. Thinking it may be a hernia???

HelloThanks for writing to HCMLower back pain & pain in the groin may be due to many reasons.For confirming hernia you need clinical examination by a surgeon.Back pain may also be due to muscle spasm.At present you should take rest.Take muscle relaxants and analgesics for short duration.Proper treatment depend upon clinical examination and investigation reports.Investigations include routine hemogram,RBS,RFT,LFT,urine RE/ME,ultrasound of abdomen,X-ray L/S Spine (AP/Lateral view).MRI L/S Spine can be done if needed.Hope i have answered your query.Take CareDr.Indu Bhushan
