    Sports Hernia – Convo with dr. Shirin Towfigh

    I play soccer so is there anyway to speed this up as in 5 weeks I have another showcase then a month later as I mentioned I need to go to Europe. Any strengthening exercises or injections?

    As I understand usually people with sports hernias have much worse injuries. Tears in the abductors and groins etc…

    For me (as I understand) my pain originates from the abdominals. I was stupid and did too much ab work. Weighted crunch machine is what destroyed me I believe. From that my groin started hurting. Nothing is torn however. The stress reaction is most likely from my abdominals pulling on my pelvis, yes?
    The week and a half I have been resting has been absoluetly awful.

    So is there any way to speed it up. I have a sports doctor appointment on the 3rd of June.

    Thank you for answering.
