Pain in joining between thigh and vagina

Posted , 2 users are following.

every since i was pregnant with my child over 2 years ago ive had pain in the joining of my thigh and vagina (groin area) but nearer my bum too. when i was pregnant they told me it was pelvic related and during my next pregnancy it got worse again but its never left. i struggle to do certain things with my left leg and sometimes when resting i get an aching pain where it is. sometimes tender to touch too!

    Has anyone mentioned the Pudendal nerve and Pudendal Neuralgia to you?This can be irritated by all sorts of trauma, pregnancy and childbirth being one of them. Very difficult to treat but you may like to read up about it. Lots of articles on line.

    just read up on it. I meant to mention its on my left side, could it still be that?

    Yes, it can be anywhere through the groin area and buttocks. Another possibility is arthritis affecting the hip joint but I think you must be quite young as you had a baby 2 years ago.
