If you have been suffering from groin pain for months, it may be due to problems with the reproductive system. Another possibility is that the pains of the intestines, muscles, peritoneum and bones affect your groin. The cause is unclear but one theory suggests that the muscles of the groin work as an electric shock to stop urination.
How can the pain in your groin hurt?
The main cause is that there are numerous muscles in the pelvic area involved in the movements of the genitals.
The muscles of the abdominal wall
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, is a rare condition that affects the muscles around the mouth, esophagus and stomach.
It is estimated that up to one in six (16%) of adults in the US has GERD, and up to 1 in 3 (5%) have symptoms that last for at least one month.
A strong or a weak immune system that does not fight the bacteria in your esophagus may allow the bacteria to enter the abdominal cavity.
Other causes
There are also other causes of sexual symptoms. For instance, when you have problems urinating your vagina may feel tight, wet and painful. There is a great deal of research on other possible causes of vaginal dryness.
Causes of Female Urination
The main causes are that the muscles of the vagina and rectum are working as an electrical shock.
How to avoid pelvic pain
If you have any of the symptoms of pelvic pain, it is important that you immediately seek medical attention. If there is a history of similar problems, it could indicate a possible more serious problem.
You also should avoid things that can irritate the genitals, such as:
- sensitising to heat
- sensitising to cold
- sensitising to light
- sensitising to chemicals, alcohol, chemicals in food
- sensitising to chemicals in air
- sensitising to strong or unusual sounds
The pelvic floor muscles control the movements of the vagina. Your body may be unable to control pelvic organs’ movement in the normal way. For example, the lower part of the rectum may be so weak that the muscles inside may not be able to help with urination.
If pelvic pain is due to another type of condition and you can manage it, you may be able to prevent it. In particular, you will benefit from:
watching your diet and exercise to make sure you are able to maintain good levels of energy keeping a regular exercise routine to keep your muscles and organs working well receiving regular health checks.
If you think you have problems with the genitals, tell your doctor. However, if you are unable to avoid all symptoms of pain and discomfort then it is worth trying some of the options below.
If you can’t avoid the problem
Take a cold shower or bath to relieve the discomfort. To be safe, never take the shower or bath yourself. If it is your first time, you could put it on an electric hot water machine or warm tap.
It is best to tell your doctor as soon as you have been able to control your symptoms.
Make sure you understand the cause of the problem. Many of the more serious and complex conditions can be treated if you can understand the underlying cause.
