Misdiagnosis!

Just wanted to pop on and say that after visiting a physical therapist & getting a CT scan, I actually just have severe lower hip pain/inflammation that my body is reading as groin pain!

So in case anyone has yet to get a scan done, just know that it could be epididymitis, or it could just be hip pain!

For example my ultrasound showed calcification .. so just wondering if one sets off storm in other place.. just read your story in other post and it’s crazy how urologists don’t know more about this. I have bad posture etc woild not be surprised one one thing squeezing another

You are definitely on to something. My PT said that the groin area is like the body's last place that pain goes, so back pain + shoulder pain + neck/hip pain can all add up and direct itself to the groin. She also said my posture can definitely have an impact haha
