question: I have intermittent, sharp burning pain on my lower left abdomen radiating down into my upper thigh.   I am a female athlete (aged 55 today!)--daily vigorous spin classes and 2 hours of weight lifting a week.  I am hoping it is a sports hernia instead of ob/gyn.  I am post menopausal with a history of uterine fibroids. I had a successful myomectomy (minimally invasive) in 2008 with no complications.  I have had a small ovarian cyst for years which has never been troublesome.  I have had an unremarkable menopause.  Thank you.
