Hi everyone. Haven't posted in a long, long while. But I'm back with an aggravating fear.
I'm a pretty healthy 26 year old man. I've quelled my anxiety for quite a good time by just doing what I can to let things pass. However... today is not one of those days.
Yesterday, I did my usual workout routine. Nothing different at all. However, afterwards, for about 45 minutes straight, I had a coughing fit. I swallowed my spit the wrong way and choked. Couldn't get rid of the cough.
Well, last night I started feeling some pain in my groin area, just right below my lower right abdomen. It hurt whenever I leaned up, moved, walked, coughed, laughed or when I, ahem, 'pushed' when I went to use the restroom. It wasn't that bad, but upon waking up today, it hurt much worse.
I've pretty much spent today resting, writing it off as a lazy day, while making the bad decision to consult with Google...
I should mention that my arms a little sore today as well, so maybe I went a little harder than usual during my workout or something. But I have sore arms and an EXTREMELY sore groin!
I hope it's not a hernia! There's no bulge or lump. Just a lot of pain when I cough, walk, bend over, etc.!
As I said, I rested today, but I can't do that tomorrow. I have to mow the yard tomorrow as the grass has gotten pretty high (almost 2 weeks of nonstop rain) with a push mower. I just hope the pain has mitigated a bit by then. I rested up today and ate plenty of protein, so hopefully that will aid in recovery.
Just fearful that it's a hernia. Hopefully just a muscle strain. Please help!
