Hello. I am preop but wondered if at any stage any of you have found if your groin pain worsens when you are needing the loo??

    Only a guess:  it maybe that there is a nerve that becomes irritated when your bladder is full, and starts to press on it.

    No. It doesn't. The only thing about the loo that hurts is sitting down and standing up. Being pre-op, that's a strange question. LOL

      Maybe is positional or referred from the nerves then?

      Didnt think it odd to ask

      I didn't mean to sound rude! Not at all. I misunderstood what you were asking. Apologies...
